Cookery Classes
At Sherwood Green, we offer Cookery Classes every Friday for children in our preschool and toddler rooms. These sessions play an important role in each child’s development, teaching the importance of healthy eating and balanced diets as part of a healthy lifestyle. By learning these essential life skills early on, children build a strong foundation for their future well-being.
Our cookery classes encourage children to explore a variety of textures, colours, and smells, inspiring them to try new flavours and broaden their food experiences. Cooking is not only enjoyable but also helps children develop many practical skills, including:
Reading Skills
By following simple instructions, children improve their reading comprehension.
Following Directions
Cooking teaches children to listen carefully and follow steps.
Measuring and Number Skills
Measuring ingredients introduces early math concepts.
Hand-Eye Coordination and Fine Motor Skills:
Tasks like sprinkling, stirring, and spreading strengthen coordination.
Early Math and Science Concepts:
Cooking activities introduce counting, measuring, and observing changes in ingredients.
Through cookery classes, children at Sherwood Green Nurseries gain valuable skills in a fun, hands-on way that supports their growth and curiosity!
