Kids Can Cook Classes Fun and exciting hands-on Kids Can Cook Classes are offered by chefs experienced with "growing cooks." Classes are held on Saturdays for kids aged 6-14. An adult participant must accompany any child (or 2 children) under 12. Kids should dress in "messy" clothes and wear short-sleeved shirts. Aprons and chef's hats will be provided.
