Kids in the Holiday Kitchen

I first saw this book at our local library and fell in love with its graphics and fun recipes to do with kids. The recipes are colorful and many would make great teacher gifts all year around. There are recipes for lunch, such as, tea cup soup and snowman sandwiches...dressed up tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches. Our family is having a reunion this weekend and the caramel corn with orange and chocolate should be a hit. And our 4-H group recently used the cookies in a jar recipe for a project learning day and the kids really enjoyed themselves as they scooped in the ingredients and made colorful tags. This book will get lots of use year around!

Really nice book

I was really happy to find this book for my daughters this Christmas. It has a really nice selection of recipes and crafts. There are ideas for meals like Stuffed French Toast, Mac and Cheese, and our favorite Teacup Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Sandwiches (cut with cookie cutter). Although this isn't a vegetarian cookbook, only two of the recipes contain meat (most recipes contain dairy products however). The selection of sweets (admittedly our favorite chapter) included ice cream, cookies, candies, drinks, and more. We all found something we liked (for me it was the Chocolate Mint Brownies!) The book also containsa selection of craft projects to make for gifts--the layered cookie jar especially caught my eye. A lot of the crafts sounded pretty good but I wish each one had a picture because it's hard to figure out what they should look like, especially for kids. In fact, if there was a picture of each recipe and craft, this would have been a five star rating. Still a great book, small and manageable for kids with some nice ideas.
