Truth is, nobody thinks about a kitchen when looking
for nice places to take their children, but…

Children in Aspen Will Love This!

Hi! Thanks for visiting us!
There is a huge offer of activities for your kid in Aspen ; certainly, choosing the best ones is a hard task. However, a kitchen will hardly rank top. As adults, we forgot how much we enjoyed making mud pies or helping in the kitchen when we were kids.

Kids love to cook!

Girls —and boys— also love to eat the food they prepare.

Now, imagine yourself and your children in Aspen.  The family went to the mountains, and kids played with the dancing waters in the fountain… Now, you are in a kitchen… and kids ask you to read a recipe. You are exhausted; they, on the other hand, never get tired. They´ve already gathered the ingredients they know.   And they put to work.
So, forget about the shiny floor and…

Behold Ye, Children in Aspen! Welcome the mess!

Of course, that half cooked mess is only a mess before your eyes, but a masterpiece from their point of view. They are proud of their success.

During the last year, with kiddiecookers’ programs, kids in Aspen have learned to prepare their own culinary hors d’oeuvres. And with their masterpieces, without even realizing it, they also learned:

They learned a lot!

Can you believe it? A simple task can become a lifelong ability. Children in Aspen are already enjoying learning experiences in a fun environment, doing what they love.  Kids get pleasure from the process, from the beginning to the outcome. Especially the outcome…

Oh, yes, someone will have to clean the mess later. But… who cares anyway?

It’s not your kitchen! It’s kiddiecookers’!

Kiddiecookers.com wants kids in Aspen to be in the kitchen to teach them.  Not just how to cook… but also how to buy ingredients. And kitchen safety as well.
Parents will learn, too.  Here’s a short list of reasons to contact us:

The Mom, Dad and Me program provides an excellent opportunity to get to know your kids and establish more rewarding relationships. Mothers, fathers and children in Aspen have experienced the program and always learned to plan as a team to get the job done. The program helps boys and girls in boosting their confidence, as they see (and savor) their accomplishments. Read what a proud mom has to say about the Mom, Dad and Me program:

“What a great bonding experience for my daughter and me…
I can’t wait to make these recipes at home.”
—a mom

But wait! There’s more.  Children in Aspen may attend after-school cooking classes during the whole year. The International Gourmet Cuisine program mixes food preparation, excitement and international dishes from several corners of the world.

Plus, a Guarantee:

Your kids will be using the freshest and finest ingredients available. At kiddiecookers.com we use only organic ingredients. We want children in Aspen to learn about how they can help preventing soil erosion while keeping pesticides off their dishes.

Did you know that children are four times more exposed to dangerous chemicals in foods than adults?  We encourage children in Aspen to prioritize eggs, dairies and meat from animals that were given neither antibiotics nor hormones and were raised on farms free of pesticides. Whenever possible, we use products from Government-certified organic farms.

Chef Shael Berni founded and directs the school to assure “smart foods for smart kids”.  After graduating from Denver University, she moved out to Aspen where she became the CEO of kiddiecookers. She has great chefs as role models. Being a chef herself, Shael wants to make sure that children in Aspen know the difference between healthy and non healthy foods, as well as nutrition and eating habits.

Shael also invented the Birthday Party Extravaganzas where kids can have their favorite foods with friends and family. Up to 10 children in Aspen can enjoy an unforgettable two-hour party (or more, upon request).

“This was the best party I ever had!”
