For many pre-school and kindergarten age children, Humpty-Dumpty is just a tragic character from a nursery rhyme. But thanks to the "Mother Goose Cooking Class" series being offered by Sunnyvale resident Carole Jevons, he can become a delicious breakfast dish.

Jevons, a preschool teacher and childcare provider, is offering two sessions of her cooking classes to local families to teach young children about cooking techniques, kitchen safety and nutrition. Each course includes five classes, food and work materials for $55.

Session A began March 29 and runs until April 26 on Mondays from 11:30 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. Session B is Fridays from 11:30 a.m. to 12:45 p.m., Fridays between April 2 and April 30.
