"Great cook book"
My 10 year old daughter loves to cook the fun receipies. I was very suprised how many good receipies were in just 1 cook book.
I have app 35 cook books & 4 software compilation cook books. Just one of my CdRom cook books has over 100 various cook books inside with thousands of receipies. But my favorite cook book is this one. There are not as many receipies as my CdRom cookbooks but most are very tasty, quality receipies that are fun for my daughter to make

"its nice"
I expected more variety from betty crocker. The book is nice, clear and easy to follow format. My kids like it but are thrown away by the RAchel Ray cooking rocks far more!

"Loud. Obnoxious. And Not Enough Recipes."
You know how it grates when you're exposed to a really really loud car stereo? That's what this book is visually. I am not interested in using a cookbook that 1) hurts my eyes and 2) isn't very original. I mean, don't kids get enough stimulation nowadays without printing a cookbook this garish?

If you're looking to get the kids into the kitchen, save your money for The Everything Kid's Cookbook or Mommy and Me, both fantastic books for that purpose; or for ultra kid-friendly new recipes, Beyond Mac'n'Cheese (by MOPS), or if you're really serious about family cooking, The Cook's Illustrated Family Cookbook, all excellent selections.

For healthy alternatives, get the BH & G's Kid's Favorites Made Healthy--a really excellent book with lots of recipes that are charming and easy to make. Skip this tome, which aside from scarring your retina, is mundane at best.

"way too basic"
I found the Betty Crocker cookbook for kids was limited in actual recipes. I had thought of it for my 11yr old granddaughter but when I received it I was very disappointed in fact I returned it because even for my 7 year old grandson it was too basic. The recipes were things they already cooked. Way too much reading and too little recipes. Not a great job from Betty Crocker.

"JUST PERFECT!!"
MY DAUGHTER JUST TURNED 11 AND ON HER BIRTHDAY WISH LIST WAS "COOKBOOK". I THOUGHT THAT WAS PRETTY COOL....LITTLE DID I KNOW SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE NEW CD BY MISSY ELLIOT!! ANYWAY, THIS IS WHAT I GAVE HER AND SHE JUST LOVES IT!! VERY SIMPLE, STEP BY STEP, RECIPES FOR ALL SORTS OF GOODIES...SHE'S GETTING TO BE QUITE THE "EMERIL"!!
