I always think that it is fun to cook in the classroom and most students really enjoy this. This is a great book to use to teach children measurements and instructions.
This was given to me by co-workers as a joke many years ago after I complained about being assigned Jell-o to bring to a potluck because I didn't want to have to cook. They apparently didn't consider making Jell-o to be "cooking" but as it involved the kitchen, measuring cups and large bowls, I certainly did.
