“Cooking Together, Cooking Forever”
In a fun and educational way, the goal of this program is to help parents teach their children the life skill of cooking healthy, good tasting meals and snacks while also reinforcing the value of family mealtime. There are three primary components to this program:
- Educational videos delivered over the internet with specific lessons
- Enrichment materials with additional information and suggested practice activities that will be delivered via email in between the release of each new video segment
- An optional (but highly recommended) contest at the end of the lessons where parents and kids will get to put everything they’ve learned into a real world experience, competing for prizes and recognition

The program will run for approximately four months, beginning with the release of the first video on January 23, 2012. This program is free to all PTA units in good standing, and is very light on effort and volunteers needed to run at your school.
