About Little Leaf Kids & the Leaf & Ladle Kitchen
At Little Leaf Kids, we’re redefining what it means to learn through play.
Our Leaf & Ladle Kitchen is a child-friendly culinary studio where creativity meets nutrition, teaching children the joy of cooking, food safety, and healthy habits from an early age.
​
We believe food brings families together, builds confidence, and sparks curiosity. This program is a core part of our mission to nurture not just bright minds, but healthy, happy hearts.
