THE PROGRESSION

Real skills for them.
Real ambition for you.

Not “easy / medium / hard” versions of the same recipe. As competence grows, more of the dish comes from first principles — and more of the decisions become yours.

A Pea progression showing child skills, parent ambition and shared outcomes across three stages, from herb cutting and tomato sauce to ravioli and advanced techniques.

A snapshot, not a ceiling. The eventual programme goes much further in both directions.

THE RULE

We don’t make your cooking smaller to include them.

We identify the part they can genuinely own today, then keep increasing that ownership as their skills grow. Your route can keep climbing at the same time.

Bring them up to your level. In skill — and in stature.
