Food Anatomy Activities for Kids book cover

Let’s become food scientists & explorers!

Our founder, Amber Stott wrote a book! Food Anatomy Activities for Kids is like traveling with a passport through the history of food: we explore fruits, veggies, nuts, and grains–the foods early gatherers would have eaten. In every chapter, kids take their learning into the kitchen to create experiments you can eat! 

Readers will understand the science behind our food: parts of a plant, how rice grows, the anatomy of an egg–and how whites and yolks are used for different purposes in cooking. From osmosis to emulsions, it’s a delicious journey!

This book was created during a crisis, when cooking has never been more important. We want kids and families everywhere to become more confident in the kitchen. This book allows us to reach children beyond our Sacramento classrooms. Food Anatomy Activities for Kids will bring a sense of exploration and joy to young readers.
