Sunlight streams down on the enchanted state of Florida, a land of sparkling beaches, evergreen palms, and where oranges taste sweeter than the first light of dawn. Now, don’t be fooled, for it is also the home of a group of extraordinary little chefs, who stir up magic in their pots and pans. They are the Flour-ida Sprinklers, the state's youngest and most talented culinary masters, led by none other than the legendary Captain Cook-a-lot. Captain Cook-a-lot isn't like any other grown-up you know. He's a jolly, marshmallow-shaped, sunburnt fellow, with a chef’s hat perpetually stuck to his head. Some say it’s because he used too much sticky syrup one day. He strolls around with a wooden spoon in one hand and a magical spatula in the other, teaching the kids the art of transforming ordinary ingredients into extraordinary dishes. These endearing kiddo chefs, with their aprons on and wooden spoons at the ready, navigate the kitchen like tiny pirates on a treasure hunt. The sound of their laughter echoes through the kitchens, louder than the sizzle of the frying pans. They chop veggies faster than you can say "Alligator Pie!" and can whip up a bowl of cookie dough faster than a rabbit hops! Whether it's baking a batch of sunny Florida orange muffins or tossing up a tropical salad, these mini culinary wizards are experts at creating dishes that dazzle the eye and delight the taste buds. They spread happiness with their mouth-watering creations, making even the grumpiest alligators smile. In Florida, cooking is a celebration, an adventure, and our little Flour-ida Sprinklers are always ready to make the magic happen.

What began in a humble New York City apartment with just a single student, Spark, has since blossomed into an enriching program impacting thousands of children. Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment.

We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn.
