GREAT EVENT: Kids Food Festival
Mark your calendars for The Kids Food Festival, an annual event that teaches kids and their parents the art of healthy eating in a fun, non-preachy way. Given the growth of Americans’ girth, we can never have enough opportunities to re-enforce how to make balanced food choices and create good lifelong eating habits. When kids are immersed in enjoyable activities, they absorb information more effectively. Families will cook, laugh and taste their way to making balanced food choices! Festivities include hands-on cooking classes in collaboration with the James Beard Foundation, family-friendly entertainment and activities, and lots of tastings. It’s a great outing. Head to the World Trade Center the weekend of May 12th and 13th. May 13th is Mother’s Day; what would please Mom more than a lively way for the family to learn better food choices? Get your forks ready for a weekend full of flavorful fun! General admission is free; hands-on cooking classes are $25. FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT KIDSFOODFESTIVAL.COM. The Kids Food Festival supports the American Heart Association and their initiatives to improve kids’ health. The Kids Food Festival is seeking volunteers and interns for culinary and administrative assignments. Opportunities include assisting chefs during cooking demonstrations, assisting children during hands-on cooking classes, prep work, general event production and more.
