"Cooking with kids is not just about the ingredients, recipes, and cooking. It's about harnessing imagination, empowerment, and creativity." – Guy Fieri
Welcome to Snack Lab, where we take your favorite lunchbox snacks and make them from scratch with a healthier twist! In this hands-on class, students will get creative and make their own versions of popular kid snacks, like Rice Krispies treats, granola bars, gummy bears, mini Lunchables, cheese puffs, pudding cups, delicious dips and other familiar favorites that you usually find at the grocery store or in your lunchbox. But we’ll be using fresh ingredients and fun techniques to give them a homemade spin!
Each week, kids will dive into fun, no-bake recipes and simple cooking methods to create their own versions of beloved snacks. They’ll learn how to swap out processed ingredients for healthier alternatives while having a blast with hands-on cooking. By the end of the class, students will have the skills to make their favorite snacks themselves and feel like a snack-making pro!
All students in grades TK-5 are welcome!
