How Our Products Are Developed
We focus on creating high-quality products that will inspire families to go on adventures with food. We believe these experiences will not only allow kids to explore all the delicious things the wold has to offer, but will teach them to be like Kalamata herself: curious, courageous and compassionate.
While Food Adventures are for Taste Buds of all ages, our products are developed for kids in the 3-8 age range.
“The text is lyrical and poetic, conjuring clever and unexpected images that invoke all five senses.”
“A food adventure your children will love.”
“Kalamata's Kitchen helps kids run toward the unfamiliar.”
Meet the Author Sarah Thomas
Through the adventures of Kal and Al, Sarah hopes to create a confident character that other children of color can see themselves in, while also encouraging all kids to look at different foods and cultures with a sense of curiosity and compassion.
Celebrating a Whole World Full of Flavor
We believe that food is the perfect way to experience the diversity that exists in the world — and that kids are never too young to start exploring.
