Culinary Kids - Ants on Logs

In this fun and interactive class, young chefs will learn how to make a classic, healthy snack—Ants on Logs! We'll explore the basics of preparing this simple dish, using celery sticks as "logs" and spreading them with creamy peanut butter or a peanut-free alternative. Then, we'll top our logs with "ants" made of raisins or other dried fruit. This class is perfect for little ones who are just starting to explore the kitchen, helping them develop fine motor skills and confidence in food preparation.
