Something's cooking! It's time for the 3rd annual Junior League of San Antonio’s Kids in the Kitchen program! The Kids in the Kitchen initiative is designed to address the growing issues of childhood obesity and poor nutrition at the grassroots level. This year's Kids in the Kitchen event will take place Saturday, April 10, 2010 at The Bright Shawl.
Our event will include interactive stations for children ages 6 to 12. The event will feature various stations that the children will rotate through. Chef Michael Flores will be doing a hands-on cooking activity with the children as will a representative from Whole Foods. Participants will also be engaged in an exercise station led by an instructor from Trilogy Dance Center. Another station will lead children through the process of growing fruits and vegetables. The final station will focus on helping children identify and choose healthy foods. All stations are hands-on and interactive. Participants will also take with them lots of fun and healthy "goodies!"
Please join us for this fun filled day of healthy activities! There is no charge to participate, simply call 210-225-1861 or email barreragirl@gmail.com to reserve your spot today!
