A Children's Taste of African Heritage is:

• A seven-part lesson plan designed to bring the African Heritage Diet Pyramid to life children ages 8 through 12 and their parents or guardians. It allows participants to discover the major foods of the pyramid and to learn basic cooking skills and some simple, healthy recipes.
• An introduction to the vibrant history, culture, and nutrition of African heritage foods.
• An experimental guide to easily adapting African heritage eating patterns to modern life.
• A plant-based curriculum that purposefully teaches about the foods--and the preparation of them--recommended most by the African Heritage Diet Pyramid.

This black and white illustrated teacher's curriculum is used by our volunteer teachers to lead our seven-week A Children's Taste of African Heritage cooking series based on the Oldways African Heritage Diet Pyramid. 

The companion student handbook: A Children's Taste of African Heritage Student Handbook is sold separately.
