About Wholesome Kids Cook

Wholesome Kids Cook was created to educate children and families about the benefits of healthy food choices and how to prepare foods that are simple, tasty and nutritious using organic, whole foods. We focus on traditional methods of preparing foods - such as soaking grains, legumes and nuts and using sprouted flours in baking- which help to increase the nutrients in foods and enhance digestion.   

Through our hands-on parent-child cooking classes, we hope to empower families to get back in the kitchen and take the time to prepare homemade meals together.  We believe that a healthy relationship with food begins at home and at an early age by providing children with the opportunity to create, taste and enjoy a variety of wholesome foods that are grown from the earth!

Our classes are held at RWJ Hamilton Center for Health & Wellness in Hamilton and Tiger Hall Play Zone & Activity Center in Princeton. For more information, visit www.wholesomekidscook.com or call 609-619-0885.
