When you’re cooking in the library,
You’re learning all the while —
To pour and measure, mix and stir
And sift flour into a pile.
Scrub your hands before you start
Tie your apron too
Find pots’n pans and measuring cups
cause you know what to do! .
Read the recipe, step-by-step,
Mixing, stirring as you do .
By carefully following the directions,
It won’t be hard for you.
Have a hot pad handy
And an adult standing by —
So you won’t hurt yourself
When baking the pie.
Besides the fun and learning,
There’s always sharing too,
And even at the library ,
Cooking is what we do !
