Gift Guide: The Best Baking Kits for Kids of All Ages
Updated by Timothy Paradis
When I was a kid, I wasn’t allowed to help in the kitchen, as my parents and grandparents worried about how I could hurt myself and the mess I could possibly make. Fast-forward 15 years to me sitting in my first apartment, Googling videos for the right way to cut an onion. But don’t fret — you can avoid all of these scenarios by investing in kids cooking subscription boxes, which specialize in helping children develop their skills and confidence in the kitchen in an age-appropriate, safe manner.
Don’t let your kids grow up without knowing their way around the kitchen. Rather, use these subscription boxes to ensure your kids have at least basic cooking skills.
Must-Have Kids Cooking Subscription Boxes
These baking and cooking kits don't just help kids develop their culinary skills — they help kids get accustomed to cooking tools, learn about other cultures, reinforce math and science fundamentals, and overall, help build life skills for toddlers, older kids, tweens, and teens.
Take the
Baketivity Kids Baking DIY Activity Kit
subscription box, for example. This fun kit comes with illustrated recipes and pre-measured ingredients to make it easy for kids to bake something delicious. These boxes also offer kitchen-related activities for you and your children to enjoy. And don’t worry about allergies — all these boxes are nut-free and kosher.
Many of these subscription boxes include kid-friendly recipes and other activities, showing kiddos that it's fun to get in the kitchen and make something from start to finish. And the best part of it all is that those donuts, brownies, and cupcakes are not only homemade, but they get to be devoured by the whole family!
