Fun, exciting summer camps and a chance to learn real-life skills? Oh, yes, and don’t forget the yummy treats! This summer, your kids can learn how to cook and create delicious recipes as they have a blast in the kitchen! Nini’s Cooking Class summer camps teach kids basic cooking skills and allow them to get creative in the kitchen, enjoying tasty meals and good times.
The goal of Nini’s Cooking Class is to get kids cooking, and have fun doing it! No experience is required and no matter which camp you choose, they are all delicious! Kids will love eating the food they prepare, as they work in a real kitchen. They’ll appreciate new flavours from a variety of cultures. Step-by-step instructions ensure kids will feel accomplished and empowered. These cooking skills will ignite creativity and build confidence and self-esteem to last a lifetime!
Summer Camps
Petit Chefs (Ages 5+)
This is a culinary adventure to learn essential kitchen skills and safety in a fun way. Plus, kids will cook things they love, from chicken fingers and fries to cookies and cream cupcakes, while being exposed to new foods and flavours.
Baking Bonanza (Ages 7+)
Your young baker will try everything from breads and buns, to cookies and cakes. How does a savoury sausage roll or Chinese beef bun sound for lunchtime? Delicious! And even better when you make raspberry ripple cheesecake bars for dessert. Kids will have fun at the cooking competition on Friday while building skills for a lifetime of sweet success!
Top Chef Sizzle ‘n Slice (Ages 8+)
These young campers are ready to take their skills to the next level! Get ready for cooking challenges and daily competitions. Kids will learn the importance of teamwork and creativity, plus essential cooking and kitchen skills. They’ll be inspired by delicious meals like Banh Mi sandwiches on homemade baguettes and cinnamon buns with cream cheese frosting!
Cooking Around the World (Ages 9+)
It’s a culinary adventure around the world and it’s filled with fun and flavour! Campers will create diverse meals from five regions of the world as they foster an appreciation for global food and traditions. Chicken biryani, Chinese dumplings, Baklava rolls, arepas — so many delicious foods! This camp will have a cooking competition on the Friday of camp week. Next stop: your kitchen!
Summer camps at Nini’s Cooking Class run from 9 AM – 5 PM, at multiple locations in Calgary. Before care, beginning at 8 AM, is available for a fee. Camp fees include lunch, daily take-home recipes, and a professional uniform (a chef coat, an apron, and a cut-resistant glove).
What does your camper need to bring? A smile, a positive attitude, and a willingness to learn and have fun! You may want to send them with a takeaway container, in case there are leftovers after they eat their food. Don’t forget a labelled water bottle, and for kitchen safety reasons, please have them wear closed-toe shoes only and keep their hair tied back.
It’s time to get excited about kids in the kitchen! Fill this summer with practical learning, good times, and delicious food! Registration is now open for the best summer camp experience. When they bring these skills home to you at the end of the week, everyone wins!
