If you work on
cooking skills
with children, it
can be very
helpful to use
simple, step by
step, recipes
with picture
images. There
are several
websites that
offer free step
by step picture
recipes.
One of the best, in my opinion, is Your Special Chef. This website was created by
a girl scout gold award project who was inspired by her brother who has Down
syndrome. It was updated in 2014 and it is really awesome. There are so many
free step by step recipes and you can download everyone as a PDF document. If
you don’t see exactly what you are looking for there is even a recipe creator with
picture images that you can use.
Make Learning Fun also has a few picture recipes using illustrations. They have a
small but useful collection.
Speaking of Speech has a nice collection of Boardmaker picture recipes.
What are your favorite step by step picture recipes?
