2021 Kids Cooking Healthy Contest

Jacksonville FL. (April 2021) Wen Raiti, owner of House of Leaf & Bean on Beach Boulevard in Jacksonville is hosting their 1st Annual “Kids Cooking Healthy Contest” for children 7 years – 12 years of age with culinary prizes that they can shared with their family. The House of Leaf & Bean is a healthy fusion blending Asian and Western culinary traditions offering organic, vegan, gluten-free and vegetarian options. Wen knows that kids love to be in the kitchen ~ and eating healthy is easier today with the cooking and shopping options available in supermarkets ~ and at the House of Leaf & Bean too!

When children are in the kitchen, they surprisingly learn to express their individuality and curiosity about food ~ plus they learn a little more about math, science, reading and love! Cooking something healthy for the family grows independence while possibly inspiring youngsters to eat healthier every day.
