HIGHLIGHTS
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Encourage your children’s creativity and autonomy by giving them a chance to make their own food in a safe and supervised environment. Japan offers easy cooking like onigiri or lots of snacks that can be enjoyed only by following complicated instructions. Although these treats provide Japanese children with entertainment along with their snacks, non-Japanese kids often can’t understand what they need to do. With an English-speaking guide, your children will be taught the procedures to fully enjoy all that Japanese snacks have to offer. Children are provided step-by-step guidance, but are given enough freedom to feel a sense of accomplishment as they figure out the steps for making their own treats. Each demonstration is limited to five kids, so each child can be given a lot of person attention and assistance. Bring your children into the kitchen and watch their faces light up when they learn new skills in their own cooking adventure!
