The Spatulatta Cookbook

by Tracey Thompson on January 20th, 2008

 I have been talking a lot about getting kids into the kitchen and this is one cookbook and website that would be great for you and your kids.  What better then getting some helpful tips from a child’s point-of-view.

Isabella and Olivia Gerasole are two sisters who love to cook and have developed a website and cookbook (with some help from some savvy adults).  Their website, Spatulatta.com won a James Beard Award in 2006.  It is full of fun, kid-friendly information and videos for some of their recipes and even basic kitchen skills.  Their on-line store has some fun kids kitchen tools and who can forget the chef’s hat and apron?

The Spatulatta Cookbook is loved by both parents and kids, is spiral bound, has some great recipes along with pictures:

This fabulous cookbook for kids features Isabella and Olivia Gerasole, the adorable and charming hosts on www.spatulatta.com. A cooking for kids website that recently won a 2006 James Beard Award, which is the equivalent of an Oscar in the culinary world. Their kid-friendly recipes range from basic “Mom’s the Star Toast” to a peek into various ethnic cuisines like “Yumbo Gumbo.” The cookbook is arranged by season and also includes special sections devoted to snacks and vegetarian recipes along with easy-to-follow basic cooking skills and weights and measures.

You can find The Spatulatta Cookbook at booksellers, Spatulatta.com and Amazon.
