Fun Hands on Activities
Teaching Kids How to Cook Homemade Pizza: Simple and Tasty
Main Idea
This activity is great for weekend dinners! If your child loves pretend cooking with toy food, they will enjoy making their pizza by adding some toppings!
Activity Prep
(What we used)
Pre-made pizza dough
Pizza sauce
Toppings (We used fresh tomatoes, black olives, and basil)
Mozzarella cheese
How We Did
Important: Please do not attempt this activity without adult supervision.
First, I cut all the toppings and put them on plates individually. We spread the dough together. That was the first time my son touched the pizza dough, and he was surprised by its strange texture. After that, we added the pizza sauce to the dough.
My son was super excited to 'play' with real food.
He had a lot of fun adding toppings to the pizza He doesn't like olives, but he added them anyway! Too many foods were on top of each other, so we teamed up again, spread them apart, and then baked them.
The pizza looked delicious! My son realized that there were some toppings he didn't like. (Olive and basil) After removed them off, he happily ate his pizza and said he loved it!
