Top 5 Reasons Why Sushi’s Kool for Kids
5. It’s the only time it’s acceptable to play with your food, because you can eat with your hands! It adds a fun element to dining out with Mom and Dad.
4. It’s an easy way to sneak in vegetables, including spinach, carrots, avocado, asparagus and other nutrient-rich options.
3. Cool names sound appetizing. Dragon roll, tropical roll, SoBe roll, caterpillar roll and even the Las Vegas roll intrigue older children to try something out of the ordinary. When making sushi rolls at home or in SushiSKool, encourage kids to brainstorm their own wild names for their creation.
2. Kids take pride in eating something they’ve made themselves and sushi is an easy activity to set up for them at the kitchen table before dinner time.
1. Creativity. Making sushi is like an art project. The colors and textures of new foods like mushrooms, bell peppers, tuna, salmon and even nori (seaweed) are the paint to your child’s rice canvas. The fun of putting a roll together makes kids more likely to want to taste their artful creation!
On Saturday afternoons, the one-hour class will coach the next generation of sushi lovers on the basics of ordering, using chopsticks, eating different types of sushi and sushi etiquette.
SushiSkool will take place in Marssa Restaurant at Loews Lake Las Vegas Resort and in Sushi SoBe at Loews Miami Beach Hotel. The class, which includes plenty of tasting, is $20 per child.
