Thanks for posting this. My kids love going to cooking class.
mommy likes, kids don't! hahaha...I attempted to enroll them at CACS since it's just nearby, but they backed out and said they will just "cook" and help me in our kitchen :)
M wants to try football would you believe?! :))) J will continue with taekwondo.
Rone, that's wonderful at least they do not stereotype cooking as something that girls only do. Sakin, it's also my boy who shows a greater inclination in culinary arts.
Michelle, enroll M in futbol fanatics. they have great teachers. and should you enroll, lemme know... i have extra futbol fanatics jerseys that i can let you borrow. you can just buy her her own set when she decides it is the sport for her.
