Stuck inside? Teach the family how to cook!

Beat the boredom of social distancing and keep the kids entertained by getting everyone involved in making dinner.

Schools are closed for the kids and your home has turned into a mix between a daycare center and scholastic complex. There's no need to fear. What better way to pass the time than getting the whole family involved with something that is equally educational and delicious: cooking!

In the digital age, you can ditch the classic cookbook and watch tasty recipes made right in front of you. Masterclass is considered the industry standard for subscription-based cooking tutorials, where you can learn from world-renowned chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Wolfgang Puck. Subscriptions run $15 a month.
