“In a time where childhood obesity has more than doubled in children and quadrupled in adolescents in the past 30 years per the CDC, educating kids with food and healthier habits is so integral. With programs like the SuperChefs that emphasize educating kids on eating smart, I truly believe our paradigm is shifting in the right direction. J loved learning how to use the pasta machine and cranking out his very own noodles- so much so, he begged to make noodles at home so we’d have enough for everyone. You know an event is that good when your kids wants to continue the activity at home and further in life. SuperChefs is a wonderful engaging way for kids to learn about the food they eat.” <strong>Next Kid Thing</strong>, August 18, 2014
“Westin has partnered with SuperChefs, a group of doctors, dentists, dieticians, chefs and other experts dedicated to educating kids on the importance and the fun of eating smart, to create The Westin Eat Well Menu for Kids. The extensive new menu, which has rolled out to properties worldwide, includes eight signature (SuperChefs) dishes created and tested by kids. I was thrilled to learn about Westin’s Well Being Movement- a step that establishes Westin as a true pioneer in the approach to the well-being of hotel guests. <strong>The Mama Maven</strong>, July 29, 2014
"Energetic and enthusiastic demonstrators in their crisp white chef jackets performed for us all. They gave the children quite a show creating pasta dough and crepes. We were then invited to create our own versions. It was amazing being surrounded by such enthusiasm and devotion to a healthy cause. The idea that food nourishes our bodies and is essential to all life sometimes gets lost in our busy lives. Encouraging children to create their own food and showing them the pleasurable side of doing so empowers them. We eat to live and, as with everything else in our lives, eating should be a sensational and exciting adventure.” <strong>Parent Guide News</strong>, August 15, 2014
