You can start with asking the kids to choose cookie recipe.
The kids can help to read the ingredients.
Show the kids how to check wether the necessary ingredients are in your kitchen.
Then check whats needed for a shopping list.
If the kids are able they can write a shopping list. If not get them to
draw the items you need.
Take their list to the grocery store. Encourage kids to find the ingredients to add to your shopping basket.
This helps kids to learn independance.
