Pizza Party with a Twist! Mini Masterpiece Pizzas

The digital age has made it easy for parents to keep kids busy and occupied, but with the negative effects of prolonged screen time, it might be time to go back to basics. By basics, we mean teaching kids life skills that are fun and educational, such as cooking. It might sound intimidating for a young child or even a tween, but A Casa Mia’s cooking classes make the experience both enjoyable and unforgettable.

The History of Pizza

Pizza is one of the most sought-after fast foods in the world. Whether homemade or store-bought, it brings an inexplicable taste as we indulge in its cheesy goodness. But what do we really know about the history of pizza? Originating in Naples in the late 18th century, pizza started as a simple flatbread topped with olive oil and herbs, enjoyed by locals for centuries.

Over time, it evolved into the iconic dish we know today, spreading globally and capturing the hearts and taste buds of people everywhere. Its journey from humble beginnings to worldwide fame is a testament to its delicious versatility and cultural significance.
