Hands-On Cooking Fun for Young Chefs!
At Camp Wonder Works in New Hyde Park, our Culinary Adventures cooking program offers a delicious blend of learning, creativity, and fun. Designed for campers in Pre-K through 2nd grade, this hands-on cooking experience introduces children to the joys of food preparation while teaching essential life skills and healthy eating habits.
What Is the Culinary Adventures Program?
Our cooking classes are a camper favorite! Each week, children roll up their sleeves and dive into the kitchen to create tasty, kid-friendly recipes like:
Personal pizzas
Colorful cupcakes
Fresh-baked cookies
Healthy snack options like fruit skewers and veggie dips
Creative twists on classic favorites
Campers measure, mix, pour, and decorate—developing coordination, focus, and confidence every step of the way.
More Than Just Cooking
Cooking is a powerful educational tool that teaches much more than how to follow a recipe. In our Culinary Adventures program, campers also:
Learn basic math skills through measuring and portioning
Understand nutrition and healthy food choices
Practice kitchen safety and hygiene
Build teamwork and communication skills
Gain a sense of pride and independence through their creations
All recipes are designed to be fun, safe, and age-appropriate, with support from our experienced camp staff.
A Taste of the Experience
Our child-friendly kitchen stations are fully equipped for safe, supervised cooking sessions. Whether it’s spreading sauce on a pizza or adding the final sprinkle of chocolate chips to a cookie, every activity is hands-on and engaging.
Each camper enjoys tasting their own creations—and many bring home a new appreciation for helping in the kitchen!
