As a parent, the less you have to do on the day, the happier and more relaxed you\u2019ll be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t have three separate spaces, you can still make it work. It\u2019s just a bit trickier. After preparing the food, have the kids go play outside. Use that time to set the table. You might consider hosting the party in a kid\u2019s venue. Alternativity, get the kids to help.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your kitchen isn\u2019t big enough to host a group of kids, make sure the space you choose is easy to clean. This is especially important when hosting a cooking event for younger kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"639\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.partywizz.com\/blog\/20230313084239\/kochkurs-5020699_1920.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2732\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.partywizz.com\/blog\/20230313084239\/kochkurs-5020699_1920.jpg 960w, https:\/\/assets.partywizz.com\/blog\/20230313084239\/kochkurs-5020699_1920-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assets.partywizz.com\/blog\/20230313084239\/kochkurs-5020699_1920-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Choosing Easy Recipes<\/strong> For Kids<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While our team here at PartyWizz are not bad cooks, our real expertise is in party planning and party entertainment.

Pizza<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure which recipe to choose, having everyone make their own 1-person pizza is the way to go. Every phase, from spreading the dough to adding the toppings, is fun. And the kids get to eat the exact pizza they want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; A simple pizza recipe by&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbcgoodfood.com\/recipes\/pizza-margherita-4-easy-steps\" target=\"_blank\">bbcgoodfood.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Mini pepper pizza recipe by&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.delish.com\/cooking\/recipe-ideas\/recipes\/a51593\/mini-pepper-pizzas-recipe\/\" target=\"_blank\">delish.com<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; French bread pizza recipe by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.seriouseats.com\/recipes\/2013\/03\/the-best-french-bread-pizza-recipe.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">seriouseats.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Calzone recipe by&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.acouplecooks.com\/easy-calzone-recipe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">acouplecooks.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro-tip<\/strong>: Make sure you have the oven capacity to make all the pizza at once.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Quesadillas or Tacos<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a great option if you&#8217;re looking for something to \u201cassemble\u201d rather than to cook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Tacos recipe by&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.jamieoliver.com\/recipes\/beef-recipes\/beef-tacos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">jamieoliver.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Quesadillas recipe by&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/cookieandkate.com\/quick-quesadillas-recipe\/\" target=\"_blank\">cookieandkate.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5.

Grilled Cheese<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Calling it a grilled cheese is underselling it. It more of a DIY panini stand for your young guests.

Home-made bread<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get everyone to make their bread. They can then enjoy it with peanut butter, jam or Nutella. Soda bread is the way to go as regular bread needs a few hours to rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Recipe by&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.easypeasyfoodie.com\/easy-white-soda-bread\/\" target=\"_blank\">easypeasyfoodie.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro-tip<\/strong>: Keep the portions small and put the remains in the party bag.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>8.

Brownies<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on your age group, you can make brownies with or without cake mix. Also being a single cake, this is probably better for smaller groups.

The maximum number will depend on the cooking space you have. Everyone should be able to help with the cooking (and use the exciting utensils). For kids, getting their hands dirty while cooking (literally and figuratively) is half the fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get Additional Help<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure you have some additional adult help on the day. This is especially important for manual activities with kids. You don\u2019t want to leave hot elements unsupervised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Age group<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Choose a cooking activity based on the age group and make sure the recipe you choose is age-appropriate. For younger kids (less than 6) think of it as \u201cassembling food\u201d rather than cooking food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep it simple<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend that you don\u2019t try to do too much. Instead, focus on one \u201cbig\u201d cooking activity with multiple options\/toppings they can choose from. The rest can be store-bought if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Don\u2019t do too much<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t make too much food &#8211; unless of course you are happy to help eat the leftovers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prep Time<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Try to choose a recipe that has prep-time of under 30 minutes and a cooking time of under 30 minutes. Otherwise, it might be too much for the kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, you\u2019re also going to want to do all the \u201cboring\u201d leg work ahead of time such as washing and preparing the ingredients.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choose Risk-Free Recipes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to actual cooking, you can\u2019t avoid knives or hot ovens\u2026 but you can minimise the risk with proper adult supervision. For example you want to keep the kids away from raw meat, boiling water, oil and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Don\u2019t forget allergies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay away from recopies that use ingredients people are commonly allergic too (for example peanuts).  It can be a good idea to check for any allergies when you send out the invitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Party Bags<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Party bags and party favours have become a staple of kid&#8217;s parties. For an exhaustive list of ideas, you can check our article on&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/partywizz.com\/blog\/family\/what-to-put-party-bags\/\" target=\"_blank\">what to put inside a kid\u2019s party bag<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re based in Ireland, you can also by high quality <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/partywizz.com\/shop\/category\/prefilled-party-bags\" target=\"_blank\">pre-filled party bags<\/a>&nbsp;directly through PartyWizz. We\u2019ll ship them directly to you for the party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;When possible, it\u2019s nice to include a themed item in the bag along with the other small gifts. For a cooking party here are a few ideas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Wooden spatula<\/li><li>Cookie Cutter<\/li><li>Mini cookbook<\/li><li>Chef\u2019s hat<\/li><li>An Apron<\/li><li>Food to take home to \u2018show off\u2019 if possible<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Activities<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cooking will, of course, be the main activity of the party. However, you\u2019ll still want to plan a few activities and games. You can learn some of&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/partywizz.com\/blog\/family\/games\/7-great-party-games\/\" target=\"_blank\">our favourite party games<\/a>&nbsp;in our separate article on the topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s also nice to play games that match the theme of the party. Here are a few ideas to get you started:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pin the hat on the chef<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The classic pin the tail on the donkey, but with a chef to match the theme of the party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tie-Dyed Aprons<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Buy some white aprons and get the kids to tie-dye them. The only catch is that you\u2019ll want a different set of aprons for the cooking as they won\u2019t be dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lost Ingredient Scavenger Hunt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Plan an awesome scavenger hunt where the kids go looking for the missing ingredient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Menu Design Contest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you up for some DIY? Separate your young guests into groups and get them to design the best menu possible. Have a prize for the winner. This can be the menu for the actual meal or a fictitious one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Marshmallow &amp; Spaghetti Tower<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Divide your guests into teams and challenge them to build the tallest possible tower out of spaghetti and marshmallows. For an added layer of difficulty, the tower needs to stay up for 10 seconds without being held. Have a prize for the winning team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to avoid food waste, you can also play this game with old newspapers and 20 cm of tape per team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">That&#8217;s a Wrap<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At PartyWizz, we help busy parents and party organisers easily book entertainment and key elements of a party online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We pride ourselves in working with the best entertainers in each category \u2013<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/partywizz.com\/search\/kids\/magicians\" target=\"_blank\">magicians<\/a>,&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/partywizz.com\/search\/kids\/face-painters\" target=\"_blank\">face painters<\/a>,&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/partywizz.com\/search\/kids\/balloon-modellers\" target=\"_blank\">balloon modellers,<\/a>&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/partywizz.com\/search\/kids\/princess\" target=\"_blank\">princess parties<\/a> and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn more, check out our website. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><span class=\"hs-cta-wrapper\" id=\"hs-cta-wrapper-c3d448ef-5674-407a-9ab5-8c46cb1a24e2\"><span class=\"hs-cta-node hs-cta-c3d448ef-5674-407a-9ab5-8c46cb1a24e2\" id=\"hs-cta-c3d448ef-5674-407a-9ab5-8c46cb1a24e2\"><!--[if lte IE 8]><div id=\"hs-cta-ie-element\"><\/div><![endif]--><a href=\"https:\/\/cta-redirect.hubspot.com\/cta\/redirect\/3811420\/c3d448ef-5674-407a-9ab5-8c46cb1a24e2\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"hs-cta-img\" id=\"hs-cta-img-c3d448ef-5674-407a-9ab5-8c46cb1a24e2\" style=\"border-width:0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/3811420\/c3d448ef-5674-407a-9ab5-8c46cb1a24e2.png\" alt=\">> Book The Best Kid&#8217;s Entertainers&#8221;><\/a><\/span><script charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https:\/\/js.hscta.net\/cta\/current.js\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> hbspt.cta.load(3811420, 'c3d448ef-5674-407a-9ab5-8c46cb1a24e2', {}); <\/script><\/span><!-- end HubSpot Call-to-Action Code -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn how to host a cooking party for kids at home.
