Baketivity is a baking subscription for kids aged about 4 to 16. Each month brings a new themed kit with pre measured dry ingredients, a step by step illustrated recipe guide and STEM activities that explain the science behind what is happening in the oven.

You only add a few fresh ingredients like eggs, butter or milk. The idea is simple: parents skip the shopping and measuring, and kids get a project they can actually finish and eat. All ingredients are kosher certified, and shipping is free on every subscription.

How Baketivity works

Pick a plan, from month to month up to a full year. Longer plans are paid upfront and bring the price per kit down, and Baketivity almost always runs an intro deal on the first kit plus a bonus like an apron or a seasonal kit. A new themed kit then arrives every month.

Each recipe is designed for kids to follow with minimal help: younger children need a parent nearby, while tweens can usually run the whole thing alone. You will need basic equipment such as mixing bowls, a whisk, measuring cups and a baking pan.

Allergies and dietary notes

Nuts are not part of the recipes, but some ingredients are made in facilities that also handle nuts, sesame, soy and gluten, so it is not a fit for severe allergies. Recipes call for real eggs, and substitutes work but may change the result. All included ingredients are OU kosher certified.

Is Baketivity worth it?

Yes, if you want a screen free monthly activity that kids will actually look forward to, and you value skipping the shopping and measuring. The 6 or 12 month plan is the sweet spot. If your kids already bake often and you have a stocked pantry, a recipe book is far cheaper.

  • Free shipping on subscriptions

Cons

  • Expensive per batch compared to buying ingredients
  • You still need eggs, butter or milk and basic tools
  • Not suitable for severe nut or gluten allergies

Baketivity FAQ

How do I cancel Baketivity?
