2.0 out of 5 stars direction cards--- not a book!, October 14, 1998

This review is from: Cup Cooking Starter Set: Single Step Charts for Child-Portion Picture Recipes (Paperback)

This is a set of cards to make learning centers suitable for preschool- 2 grade. The cards can be mounted and the student can follow picture directions to make the recipes. Each student makes his/her own individual serving in a small paper cup. There are only four recipes in this set of cards. Three of the recipes do not require cooking. They are Lemonade, Peanut Honey Balls and Cottage Cheese Dip. The quick bread recipe uses a mix and is baked in an electric skillet. Cooking in a paper cup in an electric skillet does work and is a fun activity for a group. I am not sure that these four recipes for the amount charged is worth the money. However, the skills emphasised are good. There are 22 cards in the set and directions for setting up the center. My first grade students enjoy this type of activity and look forward to our cooking days.

This review is from: Cup Cooking Starter Set: Single Step Charts for Child-Portion Picture Recipes (Paperback)

Saw these several years ago and had to have them for a recent cooking project with preschoolers. These are picture recipe cards for step-by-step "cooking" projects; 3 of the 4 recipes do not require any cooking. If mounted on fan-fold cardstock, they are easier to follow along with, especially when using them for a group. The lemonade recipe is a big hit, using real lemons to squeeze and measure lemon juice. Promotes great math and measuring concepts, as well as fine motor skills. A bit pricey for the set, but worth it if you don't have time to make the rebus cards yourself!
