Synopsis

Do you cook with a toddler, or would you like to? There are special considerations when cooking with such young children (aged 1 to 4), which can make finding recipes tricky. They cannot cook safely at the hob (stovetop). They cannot safely use sharp knives or hand graters. They have short attention spans. They like to do everything themselves. They love to lick their fingers so shouldn't handle things like raw meat. And they have limited strength and dexterity. The Tickle Fingers Cookbook has been put together bearing all these things in mind and makes it as easy as possible for parents, grandparents and carers to have fun cooking with a toddler. It includes 30 recipes, 15 savoury and 15 sweet; ideas on how to make it safe and fun; and tips on techniques and tackling common problems. Based on 4 years of cooking with toddlers, Annabel has designed the recipes to be age-appropriate, easy-to-follow and to keep them involved and engaged. Tickle Fingers is not about gourmet or innovative recipes, but is a cookbook full of simple, tasty food that every toddler will be proud to make (almost) on their own.

About the Author:

Annabel Woolmer is a mum of 2 who stumbled on cooking as a way of entertaining her 13 month old toddler one rainy afternoon. Ever since, she has cooked regularly with both her children and with toddlers from her local playgroup. The Tickle Fingers Cookbook was born out of frustration at the lack of resources for cooking with very young children and the inappropriateness of many 'children's cookbooks' for under 3s. The Independent puts the Tickle Fingers Cookbook in the IndyBest 10 Best Children's Cookbooks, adding that "for pre-school age children, it's one of a kind."
