The Kindergarten Multicultural

Cookbook
Dear parents and/or guardians:
We will be working on a special project in class, but we need
your help! We are compiling a cookbook with one recipe from
each students family. Ideally, the recipe will represent your
culture, country of origin, or a family favorite recipe. If your
family does not cook/eat foods of an international origin, a
recipe that has personal meaning for your family or that is part
of a family tradition will work too. Please work with your child
on the following:
1. Choose one recipe that represents your culture,
country of origin, or a family favorite recipe and
neatly write it on the template provided.
2. Make sure to list all the ingredients and the steps
in the right order.
3. Include a sentence or two on what makes this
recipe special to you and your family. Please
discuss this with your child, as he/she will be
asked to share and present their family recipe in
front of their classmates. [_________]

4. Finally, on the back, have your child draw a

picture of the finished product.
This is an exciting way for each student to learn more about
their familys culture. It is also a great opportunity for students
to learn about the other cultures that make our classroom, city
and nation so great!
We greatly appreciate your help! Please let us know if you
have any questions/concerns. We will collect all the family
recipes and put them in a little cookbook for you to keep.

Have Fun!

Sincerely,
Mrs. Williams
& Ms. Reyna
