Though I have been cooking with my grandchildren for several years, I found fabulous time saving tips & ways to cultivate ownership in recipes & meal preparation. Ms. Cirillo has created a fun, educational arena for an event we all participate in every day. Her "Savvy Food Shopper" and "Magic of Food" was a real surprise. Great ideas for practical management of shopping & learning activities involving math, chemistry & nutrition. What a fun-easy way to learn fractions
