Your child plans a real meal for the family, figures out what it costs, scales a recipe up or down, and stays within a grocery budget. They do unit price comparisons, handle a kitchen curveball, and learn the kind of math adults actually use every time they cook or shop.
Ages 9–14 · Project guide · 3 skill levels
Your child plans and cooks real meals against a real grocery budget. Recipes get scaled, portions get calculated, unit prices get compared in the shop. Then a curveball lands, an ingredient is out or the budget moves, and they have to solve it with the trolley in front of them.
