Healthy Boiler workshop focuses on getting family involved in the kitchen

Family time in the kitchen can be a fun way to build relationships and skills among family members. An upcoming Healthy Boiler workshop, titled “Getting Family Involved in the Kitchen,” takes place July 14 from noon to 1 p.m. ET.

Led by Jessica McKeever, registered dietitian at the Center for Healthy Living on Purdue’s West Lafayette campus, the workshop will teach attendees how to get their kids and families involved with cooking. 

“We will discuss the tools, opportunities and skills family members might need to help out in the kitchen,” McKeever said. “Join me to learn my favorite tips to get everyone involved in the process to decrease your stress level.”

The workshop supports the physical health and social wellness pillars of the Healthy Boiler program. Those interested in attending should register by July 13 via the Healthy Boiler Portal. The registration link can be found under the “Healthy Boiler Workshops” section on the portal’s homepage. Hover over the workshop’s square and click on “Submit” to register.

Healthy Boiler workshops are free to all benefits-eligible employees and their dependents.
