27 KIDS COOKING IN VENICE
Surely well ahead in a ranking of most child-pleasing global cuisines, Italian food wins early fans with its pizza and pasta dishes, but junior masterchefs can broaden their range with a class at Cooking Vacations Venice (£175pp, min two people, accompanied children under 10 are half price; cooking-vacations.com). Menus vary by season, but always feature fresh produce bought from the Rialto Market by friendly local cook Sara. Her lessons are fun but subtly educational, schooling small groups on how to create dishes from scratch – from handmade ravioli stuffed with fresh spinach and ricotta, to Venetian-style tiramisù.
● ARRIVE Fly direct to Venice’s closest airport, Marco Polo, from UK cities including Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Leeds, London, Manchester and Newcastle (from £69; monarch.com).
