Summer classes to teach children cooking basics in New Milford
Published 12:00 am, Saturday, June 23, 2018
Registration is open for the Community Culinary School of Northwestern Connecticut’s summer cooking class, which is open to children at least 8 years old.
The “Cooking as a Life Skill” sessions will use cooking as a creative outlet, as children will gain an understanding of basic cooking techniques, nutrition and safe food practices.
There are four possible five-day sessions. The classes run from Aug. 6-10, and Aug. 13-17, with a morning session from 9:30 a.m. to noon and an afternoon session from 1:30 p.m. to 4 p.m.
It costs $200 per child. Call the school at 203-512-5791 to register or visit communityculinaryschool.org for more information. Early registration is encouraged due to small class size.
“We’re very excited to be able to offer children’s cooking classes in addition to our job-training program,” Dawn Hammacott, the school’s executive director, said in a press release. “This summer, your child will learn delicious and fun to prepare recipes for snacks, breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert including kid-friendly, healthier versions of some of their favorites.”
