We are excited to announce we will be back at the 2025 Perth Royal Show running FREE nom! Kids cooking sessions. <\/h4> <\/div> <\/div>

From Saturday, 27 September to Saturday, 4 October, join us for a fun, hands-on cooking workshop at the Kids Kitchen in the Farm 2 Food Pavilion.\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u00a0 <\/p>

We will be running five 30-minute sessions per day between 11.00am – 3.00pm, free for kids to participate, and every child walks away with a recipe and their own healthy snack!\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u00a0 <\/p> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/section>

We will teach kids how to read recipes and prepare tasty, healthy dishes. We will build skills, confidence and an appetite for good food!\u202f\u00a0 <\/h4>

We will teach kids how to read recipes and prepare tasty, healthy dishes. We will build skills, confidence and an appetite for good food!\u202f\u00a0 <\/p>

Your child will cook a kid-friendly recipe in our small-group cooking stations, work with new friends, and make their very own tasty snack. This will fuel them with long-lasting energy and nutrients to keep them going for the rest of your day at the Perth Royal Show.\u202f\u202f\u00a0 <\/p>

nom! is Foodbank WA\u2019s nutrition education and cooking program<\/a> developed to improve the knowledge, confidence and skills of the WA community to support healthy eating.\u202f\u202f\u00a0 <\/p>

More than 850 kids aged between 7-14 years joined us at our stall last year with all parents who were surveyed after the event reporting that their child would like to attend another nom! session, 73% saying that their child has been more involved in cooking since attending the session at the show and a huge 80% agreeing that their child was inspired to cook after attending the nom! Kids Kitchen experience at The Royal Show.\u202f <\/p>

Testimonials from parents were very positive: \u2018Both my kids started eating veggies more than before,\u2019 \u2018It was a great opportunity to try new food, and they really enjoyed following the instructions.\u2019 <\/span><\/i>And maybe best of all, \u2018This is the best thing we have eaten all day\u2019!\u202f\u00a0<\/span><\/i> <\/p>

There will also be a range of Superhero Foods<\/i> resources<\/a> available for purchase including recipe booklets to inspire kids to cook at home.\u202f\u202f\u00a0 <\/p>

Please note the event is suitable for children from\u00a05-12 years old, with children aged 5 and 6 needing to be accompanied by an adult.\u00a0You can sign up in-person, on the day and there are 25 spots available in each workshop. <\/p>

Have fun, be inspired, and get cooking with nom! Kids at the 2025 Perth Royal Show<\/a>.\u202f\u202f\u00a0 <\/p>

You can sign up on the day, at the stall, get in quick!\u202f\u00a0 <\/p>

Don’t miss out, mark it in your calendar today.\u202f\u00a0 <\/p> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>
