Small Fry Inspiration for Cooking with Kids

There are hundreds of books available brimming with recipes and ideas of what to cook for your children, but finding any that are dedicated to cooking with children, and especially 2-5 year olds is another matter!

Enter Sydney mums Susie Cameron and Katrina Crook, who wanted to make their days and what they do a little more fun-filled for their children and their friends, and decided that since their children were so keen to help and be involved, particularly in the kitchen, that they would relax and go with it! The result is 'Small Fry', a stunning, informative and practical book loaded with recipes, activities and ideas that makes the mundane a whole lot more fun!

'Small Fry' is divided into five sections related to aspects of our daily lives: senses, concepts, outdoors, everyday and celebrate. Cameron and Crook focus on what your little ones can do with you and offer ideas and encouragement to keep them interested in the process and the end result.

As busy mums, Cameron and Crook understand that we are often in a hurry to get things organised and the chores finished, but if we slow down a little and include the children, a basic chore for us can become a fun activity for them.

'Small Fry' is a book about community. It celebrates the conversations and laughter that take place when family and friends gather round the kitchen table preparing a delicious meal. Neither Cameron nor Crook are experts by any means, but what they both hope is that this book, will become a companion to many parents, carers, grandparents and first-time mums and dads who don't have the luxury of an extended family close by to pas on this tried and tested information.
