Captain Cook's Tuck Box
Main menu:
Cooking with children is fun, and Captain Cook's Tuck Box is crammed with healthy recipes for children, videos of children cooking, and fun activities such as menu designing, dough modelling, making marzipan fruit, and printing out certificates of attainment.
It doesn't matter if you can't cook - get your kids cooking and learn with them! We offer both a Home Edition and a Schools Edition.
| "This is a fabulous package and I thoroughly recommend it. It really inspired my students to think about healthy eating and they all looked forward to the lessons. My year 6 students were enthralled by the menus and recipes. My 12 year old daughter who is very interested in cooking also enjoyed using the software and produced some menus which would make Jamie Oliver proud! The designers and authors are to be congratulated on an excellent product." Tim Fulford, SchoolZone. |

An animated Health Genie offers ideas for healthy breakfasts, snacks and packed lunches, while the parrot Captain Cook provides hours of entertainment with his weird jokes and his running battle with the ship's cat.
Getting kids cooking is the best way to interest them in healthy eating, and Captain Cook makes it all as easy as pie, or rather a courgette salad!
With three graded cookery books for ages 5 to 12, your children can each create their own personal book of favourite recipes or even make up and print out their own! In the Menus Designer children can select courses and recipes, choose borders, fonts and decorations, and print out their own party or festive occasion menus!
