Check out World Pizza Day and what the best way to celebrate making pizza at home with your children! Cooking with your little ones at home is a fun and educational experience, as well as being able to enjoy together the end result: a delicious pizza made by yourselves!

To get started, you will need two basic ingredients for the pizza dough: farinha, yeast, water and oil. If you do not have fresh yeast, you can use dry yeast, but it must be mixed with warm water before adding to the mixture.



Also, make sure you have the mass ready, and the height of the covers you want to place on top. You can choose classic toppings such as tomato and cheese, or be a little more creative and add toppings such as salami, olive oil or fruit (or chocolate and oil).

Now let's see the fun part: making pizza together! As children we can help stretch the dough, add toppings and decorate pizza to your liking - let your imagination run wild!

 



If you want to make something special, you can make pizza in different shapes and sizes. How about a heart pizza to surprise your mother or father on your next day? As children you have fun-it's immenso to develop your heart with a mass!

Do you want something simpler? Experience a pizza toast. Everything you need are fatias de pão fatiado, tomato paste, queijo and your favorite toppings - put everything on the oven and you're ready to go!

Another option is to make party pizza. Cut the dough into small portions and each child makes their own mini pizza - it's a pizza party at home!

 



If you want something saucier, try couve-flor pizza. It is very easy to make and also a vegetarian option. Simply crush a couve-flor, mix it with farinha, ovo and queijo, and spread the dough to form a base, then add your favorite toppings and roast. Once you put together your favorite toppings and prepare them - it will be a surprise for your children to see that the pizza is made with flower couve!
