"This cooking class exceeded our expectations! The instructor did a fantastic job of creating a welcoming and inclusive environment where every child felt comfortable participating. The recipes were well-suited for kids, and the hands-on approach allowed them to actively engage"

"Loved the cook the blues away program for my 6 year son. Was looking for solutions for a picky eater, and was happy to find a program that teaches nutrition in a collaborative and thoughtful way. Parents and kids working together to learn about food groups made it fun and the founder Avia was so patient with the kids. Would recommend this program 100%."
