15 Free Kids Cooking Recipe Cards – Printable Sample Set
15 Free Recipes • One Recipe from Every Category • 4x6 Recipe Cards + Full-Page Color Versions • Free Digital Download
Start cooking with kids with this free printable recipe card sample set! You'll receive 15 kid-friendly recipes—one from each recipe category in our complete Kids Cooking Recipe Cards Deluxe Set.
It's an easy way to try the recipes, see the different categories, and preview both printable formats before deciding whether you'd like the complete 150-recipe collection.
Best of all, each of the 15 recipes comes in two different printable formats: a compact black-and-white 4x6 recipe card and a colorful full-page recipe version.
What's Included in the Free Sample?
You'll receive 15 different recipes in two printable formats.
Black-and-White 4x6 Recipe Cards
Each recipe is included as a 4x6-inch black-and-white recipe card. Print, cut and collect the cards to create a recipe box or your child's own collection of favorite recipes.
The smaller format is great for:
- Recipe boxes
- Recipe card holders
- Small cooking binders
- Building a personal recipe collection
- Choosing individual recipes for cooking activities
Full-Page Color Recipe Pages
You'll also receive the same 15 recipes as full-page color recipe pages.
Print the pages and place them in sheet protectors to start a kids' cooking binder that can grow as young cooks discover new favorite recipes.
