Cooking & Craft Visual Recipe Book | 50 Seasonal Recipes for Speech Therapy & Special Education | PreK-3
Original price was: $24.90.$5.90Current price is: $5.90.Hey there! 👋
If you’ve ever tried to squeeze cooking into your speech or life skills schedule and ended up spending more time prepping than actually teaching — this one’s for you.
I put together this visual recipe book because I was tired of scrambling to find recipes that actually work for my younger kids and students with special needs. Everything here is broken down into simple, picture-supported steps so your students can follow along without constant prompting.
Here’s what you’re getting:
🌸 10 Spring recipes
🌞 10 Summer recipes
🍂 10 Autumn recipes
️ 10 Winter recipes
🔄 10 All-season recipes (plus a breakfast shop role-play card!)
That’s 50 recipes total, each with a “What You Need” materials section and 3-4 illustrated steps. No reading required to follow along — the pictures do the heavy lifting.
But it’s not just recipes. I also threw in:
✅ Lesson plan template (plug in your speech/language targets and CCSS)
✅ IEP goal tracker so you can actually document progress
✅ Vocabulary cards for ingredients, tools, and action words
✅ 50 comprehension cards with picture answer choices
✅ Data sheets for both individual students and groups
✅ Parent letter + communication log
✅ B&W mini recipe booklets kids can take home
The role-play card at the end is probably my favorite — kids take turns being the “customer” and “server” at a little breakfast shop. It’s a sneaky way to hit expressive language, social-pragmatic skills, and WH-questions all at once.
Who this works for:
– Speech-language pathologists (SLPs)
– Special education teachers
– Life skills / functional curriculum teachers
– Occupational therapists doing cooking groups
– Homeschool parents working on daily living skills
Grade range: PreK through 3rd grade (though honestly, some of my older students with more significant needs have used these too).
One quick note — a few recipes involve hot water or a toaster, so you’ll want an adult nearby for those steps. I flagged those right on the recipe page so there are no surprises.
Hope your kids enjoy these as much as mine did!

No 20-ingredient chaos, no oven marathons — most of these are mix, spread, roll, and snack.
Here’s the thing I love most: every recipe is secretly a language lesson. While the kids are mashing bananas or rolling up toast, they’re naming foods, following 2–3 step directions, retelling steps (first/then/last!), asking for things, taking turns… all the good stuff, without a single boring worksheet.
