At Junior Chefs Kitchen, we do more than teach kids how to cook—we help them build life skills, confidence, and a healthy relationship with food. Our after-school classes are hands-on, fun, and developmentally appropriate, with themed weekly recipes that reinforce early math, science, and motor skills. We focus on food exploration to reduce picky eating, encourage teamwork, and foster independence in the kitchen. Each session ends with a tasting and leftovers so kids can share what they’ve learned. Plus, we are the only purveyor that cooks with all proteins and works with a Registered Dietitian. Materials fee of $100 will be applied. Recipes will be different from the Fall Term, so students can sign up again for the Winter Term.
Participants must currently be in grades 1 to 2.
Registration starts on 10/20/2025 and ends on 10/27/2025.
Please contact University of Chicago Laboratory Schools if you have any questions.
