Sticky Fingers Cooking is a 100% mobile cooking school for children that specializes in hands-on, before, during and after school enrichment classes. Our talented and experienced chefs bring all of the ingredients, district approved equipment and activities to lead a safe, fun, interactive and educational one-hour cooking class. All we need is a room with tables, an outlet, and access to a sink (classroom, lunchroom or teacher’s lounge are most common).
In-person classes are currently available in Texas, Illinois and Colorado.
Here is a sample of what a Sticky Fingers Cooking Class at your location would be like: Instructor shows up 15-20 minutes prior to class to set up in a designated area. We can collect our kids or have them meet us at the class (based on school protocol). Class lasts 1 hour, shorter or longer depending on your needs! Each week we create a new recipe from scratch. Students do all the slicing, chopping, grating and mixing as a team then we sit and eat our newest creation and talk about it! Our chef then cleans up and returns the following week! We leave our classrooms as clean (if not cleaner!) as they were when we arrived.
