I’ll have to look at that website. This year our oldest great grand daughter will turn 5. For Christmas she got a cook book for kids and good quality set of mixing and baking equipment and pans. So more recipes for kids would be good.

When your gdaughter is older, get her Cookwise by Shirley Corriher. She’s the food chemist on Alton Brown’s show. It’s more technical than a recipe book so wait until she’s at least 10. It explains the how and why you’d use baking powder over baking soda or why you want certain protein percents in flour or whether to use butter rather than shortening for soft or crunchy cookies. Grab a $2 used on now off amazon. Can’t beat the price. I wanted to get each of our 4H members one back when it first came out but couldn’t afford the new price.
