CookLearnGrow Book Cook Adventures for Ages 4

Starwood Academy • Primary Class • Ages 4-6 brings CookLearnGrow’s Book Cook Adventures to Frisco, Texas. Located at 3443 Lebanon Rd, Frisco, TX 75034, this hands-on after-school program (Fridays, 3:00–4:00 p.m. during the semester) pairs picture-book stories with simple recipes to help preschoolers learn through taste, texture, and play. The program runs fall and spring semesters—September 11–December 11 and January 15–May 14—with 13 classes each session. In a compact teaching kitchen designed for little hands, children work at kid-height stations, stir small batches, and assemble colorful, seasonal foods under instructor supervision. Key features: story-inspired recipes, child-friendly utensils, sensory stations for smelling and touching ingredients, and a predictable one-hour routine that helps kids build confidence. The class purposefully uses seasonal produce so lessons align with what’s fresh in North Texas; expect bright winter citrus, spring berries, and fall squash on the menu. What sets this experience apart in Frisco’s family scene is its blend of literacy and food education. Rather than a drop-in craft, the Book Cook Adventures uses narrative to introduce new foods to picky eaters and to teach basic kitchen safety. The program notes a strict allergy policy: it accommodates nut allergies only and cannot enroll children who require an EpiPen for severe food allergies other than nuts. For questions, contact [email protected]. Practical details are straightforward. Tuition is billed per semester with a two-payment plan available ($535 + booking fee at registration, $580 due later). Classes require closed-toe shoes and long hair tied back; aprons are encouraged. Parents should arrive a few minutes early to sign in at 3443 Lebanon Rd and to settle children into their workstations. The one-hour format makes this an easy weekday commitment for families staying in Frisco or nearby Plano and Richardson. This program feels like a small community kitchen where curiosity is the curriculum. It’s ideal for parents looking for an active, educational outlet that strengthens fine motor skills, introduces nutrition vocabulary, and encourages cooperative behavior in a short, focused class. For families visiting Frisco who want a child-centered activity that pairs reading and hands-on learning, the CookLearnGrow Book Cook Adventures at Starwood Academy is a practical, playful option that connects local food rhythms with kids’ natural curiosity. Across the semester, instructors weave simple math and language into recipes—measuring fractions with cups, sequencing steps, and naming colors and textures—so learning slips into play. The program lists specific no-class dates and encourages families to review the calendar before registering; withdrawals require 45 days’ written notice. Because sessions are capped and supplies are prepared in advance, spots fill quickly.
