ClassX Video Lessons Youtube Channel Smile and Learn English COOKING VERBS for Kids – Squeeze, Peel, Grate, Bake, Spread, Grind… – Episode 2
Hello, little chefs! Are you ready to have some fun in the kitchen? Today, we’re going to learn some special words that help us cook. Let’s get started!
Can you say “squeeze”? Great job! When we squeeze, we press something to get the juice out, like squeezing an orange to make yummy juice.
Now, let’s say “strain.” Awesome! Straining is when we use a special tool to take out the water from pasta or soup. It’s like magic!
Say “grate” with me. Fantastic! Grating is when we use a grater to make cheese or carrots into tiny pieces. It’s like making food snowflakes!
Can you say “bake”? That’s it! Baking is when we put food in the oven to cook, like making cookies or a cake. Yum!
Let’s say “spread.” Right on! Spreading is when we use a knife to put butter or jam on bread. It’s like painting your toast!
Say “grind” with me. Terrific! Grinding is when we make things like coffee beans or spices into tiny pieces. It’s like making food sand!
Can you say “stir”? Excellent! Stirring is when we use a spoon to mix things together, like making soup or cake batter.
Say “mix” with me. Good job! Mixing is when we put different things together to make something new, like mixing flour and eggs to make dough.
Let’s say “melt.” Well done! Melting is when we make something solid turn into liquid, like melting chocolate to make it gooey and delicious.
Can you say “pour”? Amazing! Pouring is when we carefully move liquid from one container to another, like pouring milk into a glass.

Cooking Verbs Scavenger Hunt: At home, with the help of an adult, find items in your kitchen that you can use to practice the cooking verbs you’ve learned. Can you find something to squeeze, like an orange? How about something to grate, like cheese? Try to find at least three items and practice using the verbs with them. Share what you found with your family!
Verb Action Charades: Play a game of charades with your family or friends using the cooking verbs. Take turns acting out one of the verbs without speaking, and see if others can guess which verb it is. For example, pretend to stir a big pot or pour a drink. This will help you remember the verbs in a fun way!
Recipe Creation Challenge: With the help of an adult, create a simple recipe using at least three of the cooking verbs you’ve learned. For example, you could make a fruit salad where you squeeze lemon juice, mix the fruits, and stir in some honey. Write down your recipe and share it with your class or family.
