Nursery World - Happy Jays Nursery on Clifton Moor in York

(Photograph) - Chef James Lowe cooked up a storm when he joined children at the Happy Jays Nursery on Clifton Moor in York. Mr Lowe, who owns the York restaurant Villa Italia and has two daughters at the nursery, got 24 under-fives mixing dough, making bread shapes, and using a pasta machine to make ravioli. He said, 'It's never too early to get children interested in cooking. Involving them in all the measuring and mixing becomes a hands-on experience. It's about getting them thinking about real food and teaching them that it doesn't just come from a packet in the freezer.' Photo: Bailey Cooper Photography
