Support for the many skills that children can learn while they cook is provided in the book's introductory pages. In other words, many of the words are replaced with pictures so that pre-readers and early readers can successfully follow the recipes.
Adult assistance is suggested throughout the book.
Recipes are included in such categories as drinks, snacks, fruits and vegetables, group food projects, and more. Suggestions in areas such as math, basic concepts, reading, language and conversation, and writing are given as a means for adults to easily and naturally encourage additional learning as an extension of the cooking. An art project and related book are included for each as well. Included additionally in The Pre-K Gourmet are eight stories with illustrative patterns, another source for expanding language and learning skills. Inc. All rights reserved.
