Meet the Founder

It started with a simple idea.

The Little Method started at my kitchen bench on the Gold Coast, Australia, cooking alongside my three-year-old daughter and seeing how much she wanted to do things herself.

I wanted to make it easier for little ones to truly take part in the kitchen, with child-sized tools, simple recipes and everything they need to get involved.

After months of carefully selecting, testing and refining every part of the set, The Little Method is almost ready to come to your kitchen.

Our philosophy

More than a cooking set

The Little Method was created around a simple idea: children learn so much when they're given a real role in everyday life.

Cooking gives them a chance to practise real skills, explore food and feel included in something meaningful.
