Cookery club is a group of friends that get together to take on a cooking project and cooking technique and ingredients.

Teaching cooking to children is an opportunity to teach nutrition education and make smarter food choices. Cooking can aid children in acceptance of responsibility. Each child can contribute to meal preparation and cleanup.

Merryland kindergartners engaged in making healthy vegetable sandwiches. They were taught what ingredients to keep ready and how to make a sandwich. Through this activity, they were encouraged to participate in team work, sharing, helping and a little bit of math involvement.
