Kids Cook Real Food Ecourse open today!

Today is the day! 
 Register for the Kids Cook Real Food Ecourse

Before we started the Kids Cook Real Food Ecourse, I was trying to teach my kids some cooking skills.  I was impatient and unrealistic.  I also had no desire to let them pick up a knife.  But that all changed when I watched the free knife skills videos.  A light clicked on in my head and I decided that I would try the course. 

I have been really pleased with all the resources, the video teaching, the real life lessons, the simple instructions for kids to remember with cute sayings and the application that my children have taken to use in our home.  We have been slowly going through this course, but it is so worth it.  I am able to patiently teach my kids and remember to have them practice these skills when I need them for preparing meals for the family.  Eventually, they will make their own food and also make a meal for the family! 

You can also still access the FREE Knife Skills Lessons through November 2
 
 
 
 
I hope you'll take advantage of either the FREE knife skills training or sign up to use the Kids Cook Real Food Ecourse.  Both of these resources are excellent and I appreciate all the work Katie Kimball put into making these resources to help us as parents to properly teach our kids and experience the joy of cooking with our kids.

FREE Knife Skills Class October 19-25!



Imagine your kids eating vegetables, helping prep for dinner, and making breakfast for you while you sip your coffee. Working with food encourages kids to try new things, but fruits and vegetables almost always require knives...
 
Does the idea of letting your kids use knives make you squeamish? I know it does for me! Let a trained teacher (Mrs. Katie Kimball!)bring knife skills and safety to your children in the comfort of your own home.
 
We have really enjoyed the knife skills classes that Katie offers.  I have been able to give my son several foods to prep for dinner.  Saves me time!
 
For two weeks only, you can get 3 free classes from the Kids Cook Real Food eCourse. Watch one with your kids like a regular class and polish your own skills with the other two (they're just for adults). 
 
What you'll learn in these short videos:
  • Basic knife skills and techniques for kids age two to teen
  • Mastery of the three safe ways to hold food while cutting
  • How child development impacts your child's readiness to learn new skills
  • The #1 mistake that destroys your chance of enjoying time in the kitchen with your kids
  • A tested 3-step process for teaching kids in the kitchen so young cooks learn basic skills the right way
They'll all disappear back into the course on Nov. 2, so sign up now and plan some time to work with your kids in the kitchen - you'll be amazed at what they can do! 
 
The 3 videos are:
  1. Knife Skills Training for Kids
  2. Adult Tips: Challenges You Might Encounter
  3. The Biggest Mistake Parent Make
Get the 3 free videos HERE.

Grapevine Studies FREE October elesson!


We are really enjoying Grapevine Bible Studies this year.  My kids love drawing and they are really retaining the information in the simple questions at the end of each lesson.  We are also memorizing the Bible verse for each lesson.  It's been an absolute delight doing these lessons with my kids.  I like that it's more than just reading a Bible passage and discussing it, but the added element of drawing is a bonus and adds a lot to our Bible time.  We can look back and review by looking at our pictures. 

Each child makes it personal to them which is really neat to see as well. My kids are pretty "artsy" so doing just stick figures is not enough for them.  They like to add embellishments!









eLesson Sharing the Gospel cover

This month the free elesson from Grapevine Bible Studies is Sharing the Gospel.  What a wonderful resource to have.  I look forward to using this one for myself and teaching my kids as well. 

 
 
I hope you enjoy the free elesson for this month.
Let me know if you download it and use it.
I welcome you to the Grapevine Studies family!

Kids Cook Real Food Class #3 + Kids Cook Real Food Ecourse registration coming soon!

Today in our Kids Cook Real Food Class we did Dull Knife Skills Level 2 with cross hatch cutting.


First we learned about spices.  I know I want to get my kids more interested in all the spices I use in the kitchen.

I can't tell you how much I enjoy having someone else help me teach these important cooking skills in the kitchen.  My kids are always eager to do Cooking Class with Mrs. Kimball!

Just sign up for the FREE Knife Skills class and you will.
Class begin tomorrow! It is available from October 19-October 25.


The FREE Knife Skills Class is open from October 19-October 25.



The Kids Cook Real Food Ecouse registration is open from October 26-November 2.
 Once your register for this course, you have 1 year access.
You can buy one level or all 3 for 1 year access.

All information is on the website when registration opens.
 
 
There are 3 levels to choose from:
Beginner
Intermediate
Advanced
 
 
My children are 5 and 7 and they have had a bit of time in the kitchen, but I wanted them to get the basic skills so I am doing the Beginner Class.


Katie Kimball is a great teacher and she really makes it easy for kids to learn how to cook properly.  She demonstrates so many things that are helpful for me as mom to show to my kids.  You will enjoy her engaging atmosphere, easy to remember daily nuggets (like Bread with Butter is Better) and knife skills (Knife moves, eyes down, Food moves, knife down). 

My kids are always excited to do our Kids Cook Real Food class!  We had a super busy summer, but we are back in the school swing again and ready to start more cooking.
