Dear Parents of Future Chefs,
If I told you that your picky eaters could become good cooks and learn to love all kinds of food that they've prepared themselves, would
you believe me?
If I said that you and your kids could have a fun time in the kitchen while they learn important life skills, would you ask how?
What if you could have a night off from cooking but not spend your hard earned money on take out, would you say, "Sign me up!"?
You may be like me, a busy mom, who's grown tired of picky eaters, bored kids, and fast food. Now there's a way to solve these
problems; please let me explain...
My kids were 8 and 10 when I realized that they really didn't know how to cook and I was doing it all. This was no good - I was
either wearing myself out making hurried and boring meals that they were tired of, or we were ordering delivery pizza and doing fast food. Plus, my kids weren't learning an important skill to help
them through life.
It was time to get serious about cooking yet have a good time with it. I searched high and low and couldn't find many recipes
geared towards these in-between years, so I decided to start a newsletter with easy kid-friendly recipes and fun ideas. Cookin' Kids Newsletter was born and has been going strong since 2003! No more kids staring into the
fridge and whining about nothing to eat. No more bored kids with nothing to do. No more empty cookie jar. :)

Cookin' Kids Newsletter is a great newsletter. I have two kids, age 7 and 9 that
actually love to cook. Your simple recipes and their big imaginations have made for some interesting meals. The jokes are great too :-). Now if we could only find a good way to clean the kitchen after we are done!

I must say that I think it is a great idea to get kids interested in cooking. What better way
is there to encourage families to spend more time together than cooking together? Thank you so much for creating a great site and newsletter for kids
and adults alike. - Nicole in WI

An interesting theme to jump-start their interest
8 or more delicious kid-friendly recipes that you can make
together or they can do on their own, depending on their ability
Fun facts about the theme
Interesting quotes
Safety tips
Cooking definitions
A game such as a word search, crossword puzzle, or matching challenge
Kid-appropriate jokes and silly clipart
At least 1 recipe sent in by a reader, plus a section for
readers' letters or a food poll. Your child's participation is highly encouraged!
Book and website suggestions to take the kids a little farther on the theme

Talk about playing with your food!
Each newsletter has a theme and takes a light look at bits of history,
or a foreign country, or certain types of food. Here's a peek at some of the themes your child may receive:
These Cowboy recipes will make them giddy-up back to the old west!
In this issue, your kids will explore
Native American cooking and discover what they used for bowls.
They'll learn what the word Cajun means while their jambalaya simmers.
Kids like to "hold the hail" and "throw it in the mud" at their 1950sDiner.
I'll bet they didn't know that the name of the state bird of Hawaii has 21 letters!
These signature dishes of Seattle are worth exploring!
Kids love cookies, but where did cookies get their start and what were they originally called?
Your kids learn how to keep their food safe at a
picnic.
Who can ever get enough Mexican food?
They'll travel to Russia and discover some fun facts while trying the food.
How was pizza invented? This issue tells them. Plus, there's more to Italian food than just pizza!

How do you put a price on all this?
You want recipes that are easy and interesting; recipes that kids want
to try. I hear you and I'm happy to deliver.
Cookin' Kids Newsletter is unique. Since starting the newsletter in
2003, I still don't know of any other cooking newsletter or magazine out there that is especially for the 6 -13 year old budding chef.
Cookin' Kids Newsletter comes electronically every other month for a whole year. Each issue draws them in and gets them interested in
trying the recipes, with your help or without.
Cookin' Kids Newsletter appeals to brand new cooks and experienced
chefs of all ages. I promised not to give any names, but there are adult subscribers who appreciate the easier nature of the recipes!
Give your children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, babysitter, and
favorite girl or boy scout the gift of cooking with a 1 year subscription to Cookin' Kids, a bi-monthly online newsletter. For a
limited time I am offering this subscription to you for only $17 (USD) per year. That's not much money to get your kids off the couch and
cooking up some good food the whole year long!

Cookin' Kids Newsletter has been providing easy kid-friendly
recipes for 4 years! We've gone through some changes – from a snail mail newsletter to an online newsletter, but we're still going strong.
I think that says something. I'm thankful to all who have written and sent recipes!
Happy Cookin' Adventures,
Peggy Baron
P.S. Please let me know what you think! I never get tired of hearing
about all the triumphs with your children in the kitchen. I also love hearing about how your child's confidence has grown, how they're
better organized, and how their natural creativity has given flight in the kitchen. Have fun with it! Someday they'll be inviting you over
for a scrumptious feast at their house. Can't you just picture it?
P.P.S. Don't you always feel good when your kids learn to master
something? Anything from learning to talk to learning to ride a bike without training wheels? Well, seeing your kids cooking in the
kitchen with you will give you that same feeling.
