Thank you for the new release Let My Children Cook. I have just the grandson to share it with. One of our grandsons, Liam is 5 years old and I'm sure he will enjoy some "grandma time" in the kitchen with this new cookbook! …We will let you know what we stir up in the kitchen later this month.
Thank you for Let My Children Cook!
Let My Children Cook! makes it easy for kids to share in the fun of cooking — at a time of year when parents can really use the help!
Kids will also discover how to cook delicious food on their own, so no longer will they cry, “There’s nothing to eat around here!”
Filled with recipes every kid (and adult!) is sure to love, such as Matzah Marshmallow Melts, Crunchy Chicken Crisps and Matzah Soup Squares, to Rocky Road Brownies and Mock Oatmeal Cookies, the entire family will enjoy this delightful cookbook.

Let My Children Cook! by Tamar Ansh is a real winner. I love all the gentle humorous reminders about kids cleaning up after themselves… All in all, i think this is an incredible book. Moms will love it, kids will love it. And when the food comes to the table, the whole family is gonna love it!
From the Jewish Book Council – Starred review
Tamar Ansh has confected a delicious treat for children and their significant adults to share and enjoy in their Passover kitchens. It’s a children’s cookbook filled with Passover recipes which seem delectable and appealing even on the page. The whimsical and charming graphics as well as the clear and lively fonts draw in the reader and would-be cook and nudge one toward the kitchen to start mixing and stirring, preheating and skewering. This reviewer, who wears another chef’s hat as grandmother, can’t wait to invite the kids for a fun and tasty time.
The recipes are all quite simple and some require no cooking at all. Ingredients are readily available and presentation is addressed as an important part of the meal. The directions couldn’t be clearer; each recipe lists the ingredients in a “Let’s get to it” section, spells out the simple preparation steps in a “And here’s how you do it” section, designates whether the recipe is meat, dairy or pareve, and tells how many the recipe serves. Safety tips in the kitchen are emphasized throughout the book both in written and graphic form. Parents will be glad to see that other simple lessons such as helping to clean up are not forgotten either.
There is an arts and crafts project section so the table can look as beautifully homemade and child-oriented as the finished recipes once they are plated, garnished and served.
It’s nice to remember that Pesach preparations need not feel like drudgery. They can be fun, educational family experiences which can enhance the holiday and bake in some wonderful, long-lasting memories.
Tastily and highly recommended for children ages 7 and up and parents (or grandparents!) to enjoy together.
