Description
Teaching kids to cook is incredibly rewarding—yet the moment real knives are introduced, the responsibility may bring with it a twinge of anxiety.
You may know the basic rules yourself, but when you are supervising several children at once, there are a lot of small details to remember. Is the workstation set up safely? Does each student know how to safely carry a knife? What about cleanup, when knives, and other sharp things can get overlooked and mixed in with other dishes?
That is exactly why I created the Knife Safety Instructor Guide.
This practical quick-start resource is designed to help parents, teachers, camp leaders, and cooking instructors reinforce the safety habits children need before they begin practicing knife skills.
Safety First. Then Skills.
Good knife instruction begins long before a student makes the first cut into food.
This guide helps you think through the routines, expectations, and safety practices that make a cooking environment feel more organized and manageable. It can be used as a refresher before class, as a companion to your own lesson plans, or alongside the Teach Kids to Cook – Instructor Series, a video series on the Herbie Root & Friends YouTube Channel.
The goal is not to make children afraid of knives. It is to teach them to respect the tool, understand the rules, and develop safe habits from the very beginning.

This resource is especially helpful for:
- Parents teaching children in the kitchen

A Note About Supervision

Knife safety comes before knife skills—and a little preparation can make teaching both much easier.
