Bradley, IL – Kids in the Bradley and Bourbonnais area can step into the kitchen Friday evening for a hands-on cooking experience centered around everyone’s favorite comfort food: soup.
According to the Bourbonnais Township Park District, the “Souper Bowl” youth cooking class will take place Friday, February 6, from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. at the Recreation Station, located at 770 E. Franklin, Bradley.
The program is designed for children ages 6 to 11 and focuses on teaching real kitchen fundamentals in a fun, supportive environment. Participants will learn essential skills such as safe chopping, stirring, seasoning, and simmering, all while creating warm, flavorful soups from scratch.
Park district officials say kids will sample a variety of soup styles during the class, ranging from creamy blends to veggie-packed favorites. Each child will also receive a Souper Bowl recipe card to take home, allowing them to recreate the dishes with family members.
The one-hour class costs $15 per participant, and space may be limited. Organizers note the class is not only about cooking, but also about building confidence, creativity, and independence in the kitchen at a young age.
Families interested in registering can enroll online through the Bourbonnais Township Park District’s registration portal.
The Recreation Station serves families across Bradley, Bourbonnais, Kankakee County, and the greater Kankakee-area region, offering year-round youth and family programming.
