Cooking With STEAM

Created by a former teacher of 10 years, I’m The Chef Too breaks down the steps of cooking for kids and incorporates science-based lessons along the way. Kids enjoy the fruits of their labor while also learning about STEAM-based concepts. Through the world of cooking, children can create, invent, design, engineer and question.
