Introduce Your Child to Healthy Cooking

Wash Your Hands

Hand washing is important for food safety.

If the recipe you choose calls for any raw meat or eggs, be sure to explain how important it is to wash hands after handling the raw meat and before working with the other ingredients. Be sure to teach your child to use clean knives and cutting boards for the raw ingredients
