In our new video series Kids in the Kitchen, our kids are the ones doing all the cooking.
Enjoy episode three, where six-year-old Maeve Kennedy shows us how she to make her favourite dinner - meatballs (recipe below).
If your child would like to share what they're cooking up while they're home, we'd love to see or hear about it! Send us an email at icl@farmersjournal.ie.
