Fun Family Cooking Activities with We Feed You Share Packs
We know first hand that school holidays are always a juggle and they come around quickly each term. Keeping the kids entertained while also feeding the family and juggling work can be relentless. We've got a suggestion that can not only keep the kids busy but also fed!
Our chef-Made Share Packs are ready to heat, leaving kids to get creative with their choice of sides. They can get creative, and design a complete meal for the family. It's a great way to get them in the kitchen, keep them busy, spark imagination, and help to take the pressure off mealtime.
