With that you get the 4 lessons ($90 value) and the Kids Can Cook Master Class ($200 online course with 30+ video recipes to get your kids to expand their palates) PLUS the 1 on 1 Healthy Family coaching ($200 value) to give you personalized feedback and help as you need it. All of this is well over $500 in value

=> Yes, I want to join the virtual after-school cooking class to get my child to cook more at home!
This will end Monday by 12:00pm
Here’s what parents are saying, from yesterday’s class
“My daughter and myself have finally learned the proper way to make a quesadilla. My kids are asking me again to make them more for dinner tonight. We enjoyed it!” - Linda
“My son loved your class! We are so impressed. Thank you!” - Amanda
Just had our first virtual cooking class with my 9yr old daughter and had a blast. Recipe was easy to follow, chef Jennifer was friendly and knowledgeable and most importantly, food was delicious!! Looking forward to our next class “ - Mitchell
We made the veggie quesadillas and up next are:
Lesson 1: Veggie Quesadilla with Mango Salsa (complete)
Lesson 2: Healthy Nachos with Black Beans & Homemade Cheddar Cheese Sauce
Lesson 3: Crunchy Ground Turkey Tacos
Lesson 4: Guacamole, Pico de Gallo & Homemade Chips
Lesson 5: Breakfast Burritos with Eggs, Potatoes & Veggies
These are fantastic dinners, lunches, breakfasts and snacks for your kids to know.
Once kids know how to cook healthy foods, they will eat more nutritiously!
Plus, we’ll get your kids to expand their palates, because in these next few recipes we’ve got zucchini, tomatoes, onions, avocadoes, lean ground turkey, black beans and more!
The power of a virtual class, that I personally love, is how each kid is cooking their own version of the recipe.
We could never do this in a group cooking class in-person, because we only had one electric hot plate that the chef used.
Students would still help, mix, chop, measure, season and cook, but all around one hot plate.
Now, with a virtual after-school cooking classes, parents are cooking with their kids at home!
This is all we want to see, and with this virtual class, we can get to it.
If you’d like to enroll in the remaining 4 classes (only 5 spots on each day), click the link below.
We know you’ll be amazed when your child cook these delicious foods with you!
=> Yes, I want to join the virtual after-school cooking class to get my child to cook more at home!
Best,
Chef Eric |

| Most of the sites linked below offer episodes for free and allow you to stream directly from the site (except where noted). If you haven't hopped on the podcast train yet, read all about them in our Parents' Guide to Podcasts, which also explains what you need to know about podcast players. |
Don't Break the Rules, Pinna
This fun series uses wacky characters, fart jokes, and more to introduce improv concepts to kids. Four cartoon voice actors get a character developed by a kid, then must act out a situation without "breaking the rules" of improv: no breaking character and no ignoring a story element someone else has introduced. It's certainly silly but might encourage kids to create their own improvised stories. Pinna, the production company, usually charges a monthly fee after a 30-day trial, but they're extending that offer to 60 days during the coronavirus pandemic. |
Eleanor Amplified, WHYY in Philadelphia
An old-timey radio show with a high-tech twist, this adventure series follows famous radio reporter Eleanor Amplified as she gets the scoop—and the crafty villains. With incredible sound effects and a lively voice cast, this series for tweens will keep the energy up as the days go by. |
Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest, Pinna
Some kids may be open to a little bit of spookiness in their stories, and if so, this eerie series from award-winning author Adam Gibwitz is for them. With real kids' commentary throughout and tips for what to do if it gets too scary or icky, these darker but still kid-friendly fairy tales are sure to enthrall. (Part of the Pinna network; qualifies for the 60-day free trial.) |
The Mysterious Disappearance of Mars Patel, Gen-Z Media
The gripping mystery, sci-fi excitement, and excellent young voice cast of this award-winning series will keep your kids riveted to the speakers from start to finish. More than that, Mars Patel is an incredible role model, and this podcast is chock-full of positive messages about friendship and bravery. (Part of the Pinna network; qualifies for the 60-day free trial.) |
Pants on Fire, Kids Listen
Laughing, learning, and calling grown-ups liars are all central parts of this fun game show-style podcast. A real kid is tasked with determining which of two "experts" on a subject is telling the truth, while the engaging, funny hosts guide them through their questions. The topics cover a wide range from soap to sleep and archery to anime, so you can find topics that interest your family or learn something totally new. |
The Punies, Granity Studios
If you need a podcast for your young sports lover, then this scripted series about a ragtag group of kid athletes is for you. With characters developed by Kobe Bryant and a focus on the importance of teamwork, sporting conduct, and believing in yourself, this positive series is a winner for families. And the musical interludes are so catchy, you might find yourself humming them all day. |
Six Minutes, Gen-Z Media
With strong themes about family (and siblings working together), this tween-friendly podcast about an 11-year-old girl who discovers she has incredible abilities (and a magical hoverboard) might be a great way to keep the peace. Episodes are only six minutes long, but you won't want to stop after just one. |
Story Pirates, Gimlet Media
This high-energy series is perfect for when feeling stuck indoors has everyone a little punchy. Each episode takes two stories written by real kids and has a talented cast of raucous voice actors turn them into ridiculous audio performances. Because they're directly pulled from kids' imaginations, the stories don't always make much sense (and are prone to potty humor), but the creativity alone is comedy gold. |
