Cookery area
When setting up your cookery area, safety needs to be your main consideration. If in doubt, seek first-hand advice from professional agencies such as the local fire service.
Make sure that the work surfaces are at the correct height for all the children. Hand-washing facilities are essential and the children should always be reminded about relevant hygiene routines when using the area.
Involve parents as much as possible, for example, during cooking activities, washing aprons, contributing recipe ideas and joining in with themed picnics and parties in your setting.
When the cooking area is in use, ensure that a responsible adult supervises the children at all times. Make sure that cleaning products are stored away safely for adults to retrieve when appropriate.
