Children love good nutrition
In 2023, children at the Lidl Food Academy will have the opportunity to gain even more experiences and knowledge about good home-cooked food, with new classes and activities. One of them is the popular Lidl Little Chefs programme for parents and children from 6 to 12 years old, during which little chefs cook with the special trainers in the kitchens, while parents have the opportunity to discuss everything that concerns them about food and feeding habits with members of

The Cyprus Dietetic and Nutrition Association.

Another very successful programme is the Food Academy for Children, which is being held for the 5th consecutive year in collaboration with the Department of Home Economics of the Ministry of Education and aims to teach children the value of nutritious and home-cooked food. Almost all secondary schools in Cyprus have participated in the programme. For holidays and when schools are closed, the Cooking for the Whole Family programme brings children and parents to the Lidl Food Academy and teaches them that they time can be enjoyable and productive together in the kitchen!
