Do you love food, kids, and the idea of changing the world one meal at a time? The Kids’ Table offers fun and delicious employment opportunities in Chicago.
The Kids’ Table is a unique Chicago cooking school for kids and families. Why do we do what we do? We do it because cooking is fun – and a valuable life skill that is getting harder to come by. We do it because “real food” is really good – it tastes good and we need it for strong, healthy bodies and brains. We do it because the best way to get kids loving real food is to get them in the kitchen measuring, mixing, chopping, touching, smelling and tasting. We do it because we believe real change happens one bite at a time.
