Customer Reviews

A definite hit!

I work with kids in a variety of age groups, and I've used recipes from this book several times. Most of them are easy enough for the kids to do themselves (though I would recommend adult supervision at all times!). Boys and girls both seem to like it, and I've made use of some of the recipes at birthday parties as well as at Girl Scout meetings. It is definitely something that anyone who works with kids should have on hand.

Good choice of an activity/experiment book

I bought this for a 3 year old girl who needs variety and this was a good choice. I think her father was just as interested in the experiments so it will be more fun for him to actually use the book with his daughter. I saw it on the food network and it became a 'have to have'. A little pricey as books go but definitely worth it as it will be around for a lot more years. I am even going to copy it so it doesn't get wrecked with dirty hands.
