Tasty, educational, and totally hands-on! (All the ingredients kids need for tons of healthy fun).

Mmmmmm. In the mood for a Tropical Chicken Kabob? How about a scrumptious Blueberry Power Snack Turnover?

This delightfully clever cookbook-from the authors of the hugely popular Science Chef books-combines delicious recipes, kid-friendly activities, and lots of fun ways to learn about health and science.

All of the recipes can be made with household ingredients and standard kitchen equipment, and all of the activities are designed to teach kids valuable lessons about the crucial role diet and exercise play in the development of their hearts, bones, muscles, skin, teeth, and nervous systems.

Includes clever activities that make learning fun, such as making a stethoscope to hear your own heartbeat, testing the strength of hair, and making a map of your teeth. * All recipes feature easy-to-obtain ingredients and are coded according to degree of difficulty, from beginner to pro. * Provides information on cooking tools and skills, rules for kitchen safety and clean-up, and nutritional value of all recipes.
