My kids have always enjoyed helping in the kitchen. I think it is our deep love of food that keeps them curious and wanting to learn how to do things and help out.
Over the years, I have tried to find kid friendly items for the kitchen but honestly, I haven’t had a lot of luck aside from cookie and sandwich cutters. Thanks to the folks at Handstand Kitchen, we now have all the tools necessary for the kids to create their own pizza!
What is Handstand Kitchen?
Handstand Kitchen is the perfect place for kids to learn to love food, through a hands-on cooking experience. Created in 2007 by a recent law school graduate, Yvette Garfield, Handstand Kitchen provides children their own domain in the kitchen that empowers them to eat healthy and delicious foods. It is Yvette’s hope that children will be inspired to use their new cooking skills to give back to their own communities.
Cooking with Our Handstand Kitchen Pizza Making Set
All of my kids love pizza and they love to create their own. Whenever we do homemade pizzas, we always end up making way to much for the kids. Last weekend, we let the kids use their new pizza making set from Handstand Kitchen and they had a blast. The great thing with using a set created with kids in mind is that everything is the perfect kid size!
The pizza making kit comes with everything you need to make the perfect kid size pizza including recipe cards for your own dough and sauces.
For the kids pizza, we didn’t venture into dough and sauce making this time around but I did let them create the entire pizza themselves.
Alexander, Ellie and Joey all had so much fun making their pizza together. They each took a turn adding to it each step. I love that in the end it ended up with a smiley face on it.
I was quite impressed with the entire set. I was worried that it would take longer to cook the pizza crust through and that it wouldn’t be crispy like the kids like it, but I was wrong. The crust was done and nice and crispy in less than 10 minutes. The great thing, the kids really enjoyed it and were beyond thrilled that they had made it themselves!

Their Fall 2016 collection is brimming with birthday present and holiday gift giving ideas. Or perhaps a back-to-school or good report card present is warranted. Look for these three fabulous kits—all gender neutral, let’s get boys cooking too!–online and in specialty stores now.
I just love products like these that get the kids in the kitchen and teach them cooking skills from a young age. I think we are going to have to check out the other sets as well and really get cooking here!
