The highly anticipated 2025 Sur La Table Kids & Teens Summer Series has officially opened for registration, offering young culinary enthusiasts an exciting opportunity to explore the world of cooking this summer. Running from May 27 to August 29, the series spans 14 weeks, providing families with a fun and educational way to fill those long summer days.
As the only retailer in the country to offer such a comprehensive program, Sur La Table invites kids and teens on a culinary adventure like no other. Whether they are budding chefs familiar with kitchen techniques or absolute beginners, participants will enjoy an immersive experience featuring delectable foods and engaging, hands-on tasks. This year, the series will focus on two enticing themes: baking and global cooking.
Last summer, the program saw remarkable growth, attracting over 20,000 participants—up from 15,000 in 2023. In total, 1,383 sessions were held across 55 locations, where students learned to prepare 108 recipes from nine different international cuisines.
The benefits of this specialized cooking series extend far beyond the kitchen. Each small, hands-on class is designed to expand participants’ palates with new foods, while they learn from the best, as professional chefs and talented educators lead each lesson. Additionally, research indicates that cooking can improve math skills and help form better eating habits, making this not just an enjoyable experience but a lasting one.
The summer series offers classes for two distinct age groups: children aged 7 to 11 and teens aged 12 to 17. Each cooking session lasts up to five days, allowing parents to choose one or more sessions to seamlessly fit into their busy summer schedules. With small class sizes ensuring personalized attention, students can hone their cooking skills in a supportive environment.
At the culmination of each week, every young chef will leave with a printed menu, a graduation certificate, an apron, and a 10% off coupon for an in-store purchase, making it a perfect keepsake of their culinary journey.
As summer approaches, don’t miss out on the chance to sign your child up for the Sur La Table Kids & Teens Summer Cooking Series—where the joy of cooking awaits!
