Kitchen Classroom Cooking: Visual GF/CF Recipes For Kids Of All Abilities!

by Gabrielle Kaplan-Mayer

For kids who need extra help with sensory integration, motor, language, communication, and attention skills, cooking offers a multitude of opportunities to help them work on these skills while having fun. Professional cooking teacher and parent of a son with autism, Gabrielle Kaplan-Mayer, shows how, with a little planning and preparation, parents and teachers can make cooking a rich learning experience, as well as a chance to connect with their child or student. THE KITCHEN CLASSROOM includes 32 quick and tasty gluten-free (GF) and casein-free (CF) recipes with simple step-by-step instructions and 500 color photos illustrating the process of each recipe in detail so kids (readers and nonreaders) can follow along, see what happens next, and practice doing some steps on their own. View them on your laptop or ipad during cooking sessions.

Just as Gabrielle Kaplan-Mayer cherishes the tradition of cooking with her own children as she did with her grandmother, other families can discover the satisfaction of making meals together and building healthy eating habits. THE KITCHEN CLASSROOM gives families and teachers everything they need to get cooking and building skills for a lifetime!
