  • Deliciously Fun Week-Long Camps for Kids at Patricia's Table
    GUIDE Deliciously fun week-long camps for kids at Patricia’s Table At Patricia’s Table, we empower kids to expand their minds and taste buds while whipping up batches of fun in the kitchen. Our hands-on cooking classes combine culinary tech- niques, locally-grown foods, and fresh flavors as we create sweet and savory treats from scratch. We cook with children for a number of reasons. Cook- ing with your child creates the opportunity to teach kids where food comes from and to make a healthy connection with food. We have seen that kids are more likely to be adventurous eaters when they are involved in the process. Additionally, cooking is a life skill that provides opportunities to explore other cultures. Our hope is to honor kids’ intelligence during our classes and camps, and encourage them in becoming confident, creative chefs. Patricia’s Table offers summer camps, classes and work- shops and birthday parties for kids, as well as classes and pri- vate events for adults. 1510 W. 35th Street • Austin, Texas 78731 Fun Camp Themes For Younger Chefs Summer Camps for Farm to Table, Cooks & Books, Artistic Foodie, Kitchen Celebration, Baking Basics, Ages 3-10 America the Bountiful, and Superfood Superpowers Expand your child’s mind and For Older Chefs taste buds this summer with our Master Chef Jr., Baking Basics, Culinary deliciously fun week-long cooking Passport, America the Bountiful, and camps.
