In this ongoing course, we'll have a virtual pizza party each week! We'll play interactive games and learn how to make pizza from scratch as well as other pizza variations using easy-to-find ingredients. This is a great way to get kids excited about cooking by exploring and learning how to make different kinds of pizza and pizza variations. Perfect for siblings or friends to relax and have fun in the kitchen while preparing a meal together! Studies have shown that kids are more likely to try new foods and become more adventurous eaters if they are actively involved in preparing the food they eat. The purpose of this class is to not only teach helpful cooking skills that they will need later in life but to also make cooking a fun and positive experience. This will promote confidence and autonomy in the kitchen and a willingness to try new things. Here is a peek at some of the recipes we'll learn: Week of October 4: English Muffin Personal Pizzas Week of October 11: Pizza Pinwheels Week of October 18: Pizzadillas (Pizza Quesadillas) Week of October 25: Pizza Bagels As with all our classes, learners will follow along as I take them step by step through the recipe of the week. I will demonstrate and provide detailed explanation as we go. I will ask questions to encourage critical thinking throughout the class as well as answer any questions that arise. In addition, we will play a variety of interactive games as the pizzas bake to give learners the chance to unwind and socialize.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
While many cooking skills can be taught through online instruction, parents/guardians are best to determine their child's comfort and skill in the kitchen. My goal is to build upon what they already know...safely. If you have any questions about whether your child's skill level is appropriate for a particular class, don't hesitate to reach out.
*Recipes for this course are designed for younger learners (age 8-12) in mind. However, some will require the use of the oven or sharp tools (We will use plastic or butter knives only). Parental guidance is suggested for these portions of the class.
*As you will be responsible for providing ingredients for this class, please be sure to check all food label ingredients for potential allergens.
Supply List
- I will post the ingredient/supply list in the classroom the Friday before each class.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi there! I'm Priscilla, a former public school teacher and kids cooking instructor with over 20 years of experience in education and instruction.
I teach classes about food and cooking!
I believe kids learn best through authentic experiences, using their senses and natural curiosity to drive exploration. I've seen first hand with my students and my own child how including kids in every day kitchen activities fosters a lifelong love and appreciation for food and cooking.
I also believe that learning should be FUN in order for it to be most effective. In my classes, we go beyond skills and drills with games, stories, taste tests and plenty of opportunities for creative expression. A belly full of freshly prepared food at the end of class doesn't hurt either!
When I'm not teaching, I'm puttering around the kitchen, experimenting with new recipes or ideas or spending time outdoors with my family.
