In about 2 months my blog will celebrate its 10th birthday. It is simply amazing how fast time flew by. I started of as a mom of 1 toddler and now I am a mom of 3, and my youngest is almost 6 years old.

In this special uncertain time I want to make few round-ups on my blog to help you navigate through years of posts better. And today I want to share a round-up of all the easy recipes to make with kids that I have posted over the years.

Feel free to try them out – I am sure during quarantine or on a rainy/stormy day you will be searching for quick recipes, especially if you have a big family. Or picky kids, like mine. I hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoy them.

There is also something very unique about this round-up: the recipes come from or are inspired by different cuisines around the world. You can even built a discussion or a lesson at home around it.
