Kids & Culture Camp Cookbook

Kids & Culture Camp Cookbook:Vegan Cuisines from Around the World takes your taste buds on an interactive culinary journey to sample a variety of cuisines from different regions. Similar to Kids & Culture Camp's programming, where all learning is experiential, the healthy recipes in the cookbook teach children about a variety of culturally significant dishes and ingredients by describing foods that are typical in different regions and encouraging children to prepare and consume the dishes themselves. Written by Jania Otey, an inspiring author-educator, vegan cook, and the founder of Kids & Culture Camp, the 35 plant-based and dairy-free recipes in this cookbook span the Americas, the Caribbean, the Islands of the World, African Fare, Asia, and Australia.



The cookbook itself appeals to a wide range of audiences and fits in well with a variety of dietary preferences. Yet, young chefs will enjoy having their very own kids cookbook that features pictures of children from Kids & Culture Camp. The educational component of this recipe book is also artfully and subtly communicated. The food styling and photography are bright and evocative, and the recipes are all beloved by the children, parents, and instructors at Kids & Culture Camp. The recipes are written in a way that is very accessible to cooks with varying levels of experience.



All of the recipes can be made by children with adult supervision, just as they are made by the children who attend Kids & Culture Camp. The measurements are simple and straightforward; only basic kitchen equipment is required, and the instructions are clear so that home cooks with limited culinary skills, vocabulary, and experience can understand them. The recipes are very flexible and forgiving, and the ingredients can easily be adapted to suit different tastes and dietary needs.



Adding this cookbook to your children's book collection will inspire them to develop an appreciation for learning about cultures and countries from around the world. Children who participate in the preparation of their own meals are more inclined to eat what they have made. By preparing the recipes presented in Kids & Culture Camp's Cookbook, children are given the opportunity to refine their palates while expanding their horizons and learn about new and different cultures through the prism of food. Having healthy cookbooks at your child's fingertips can help prevent obesity and promote mindfulness. Kids & Culture Camp Cookbook offers not only a collection of delicious recipes, it also embodies the philosophy of nurturing global citizens and gives readers a taste of what the campers learn and do through the programming that is offered and the food that unites them.
