As with all our sessions, we encourage you to adapt the recipes depending on what you have in the cupboard and are always happy to discuss options during the session. Getting the kids involved is always our aim but please don’t worry if they aren’t in the mood to cooperate – we’ve all been there and our sessions are always fun, friendly and absolutely no pressure! You don’t even need to have your camera on if you don’t want to!
See you on Saturday!
