Cooking Up a Storm (ePub)

Dear young chefs

You are looking at the first cooking book in CAPS LOCK. Together with our mischievous characters, the girls Vita, Olja and the cat Didi, learn why cooking is so fun and creative. Rock the kitchen while preparing 21 delicious dishes! Follow the recipes and with the help of photos, prepare delicious breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and snacks all by yourself, without the help of your parents. The book also has tips for simple games that you can play with your friends while cooking. Pay attention to the QR codes on the side, which include interesting facts about the food you are preparing.

You can also include your own recipes into the book and thus create unforgettable memories of sweet childhood days.

Children are inherently curious, so why not teach them basic culinary skills? Not only do they have fun in the process, but they also acquire new skills which come in handy for years to come. Not to mention that they get to eat what they make!

These types of activities spontaneously develop 4 sets of skills. Children strengthen their motor skills and communication skills, especially when cooking together with other people. The kitchen is an ideal training ground where children can strengthen their ability to solve problems and learn to improvise. Since it's the children that need to put together a shopping list, get the ingredients they need and then prepare the dish according to instructions, their organisational skills also develop.

To all the parents that are already worrying about the cuts and bruises, as well as mountains of dirty dishes – do not fret! Put your unease away into the deepest kitchen drawer and shut it tight. Let your little chefs whip up some magic and surprise you.
