Cook with your children

Participants will not only make some yummy treats together but will also receive booklets with recipes and creative ideas. The classes will take place from 3-5 p.m. in the Lake County Public Health conference room at 802 Main Street in Polson. Classes will be held on the following Fridays, Aug. 2 and 9. “Parents as Teachers” is a free, voluntary home visiting program. For more information, call 406-883-7288.
