Recipes Kids Can Read Cookbook
Help kids read and feel like real chefs with my phonics-friendly recipe method.
Turning every recipe into a hands-on learning experience (even if you’re not a teacher!)
After spending 100’s of hours using recipes with kids, I’ve created a real-life way to practice reading, while growing the important life skill of cooking.
This is for you if you want to:

⭐️ help your child gain confidence in both reading and cooking
⭐️make reading fun and hands-on whilst practicing phonics in a natural way.

spend quality, screen-free time together
give your child a head start on independence and life skills
... and much more!
Nicola loved the illustrations in the recipes. So much, that her girls asked to make the recipe twice in one week.
How the recipes work:
This is the EXACT breakdown of what goes into each recipe and what makes these visual recipes so special.
So simple, right? I did all the heavy lifting to make the recipes work for even the earliest of readers – All you have to do is print them out!
What's Included?
Visual grab-and-go recipes: Every recipe is carefully designed to build reading skills for early readers.
Each recipe comes with 3 levels of reading difficulty. These recipes make reading feel natural, interactive, and fun
A cooking curriculum: These recipes aren’t just about reading—they also form a getting started with cooking curriculum. Your child will progress step-by-step, gaining confidence in both reading and cooking.
No bake recipes and recipes to use with groups plus, versions to download just for your child’s reading level

Children learn best when they’re engaged in real-world activities, and that’s exactly what this approach provides.
With visual, step-by-step recipes, your child will naturally practice reading while having fun in the kitchen.
They’ll want to read because it has a real purpose—helping them create something delicious.
But Sarah, how are these recipesdifferent to any other kids recipe out there?
What I have learnt from using recipes with kids in a classroom and with my own kids, is that although we are being told ‘recipes are great for kids reading‘ and ‘they can learn so many skills from cooking‘, even kids recipes are not broken down enough for them to follow.
When it comes to reading, they are either completely made up of pictures or the other extreme with sentences like ‘pour in the dry ingredients’.
For a 5-year old that’s a lot of brain power to work out.
Will this work for us?
