A Little Something (Sukhumvit 49) Cooking School for Kids & Family
Racquet Club Building 4, 2nd Floor, 165 Sukhumvit 49, Khlongton-nuer, Watthana, Bangkok 10110
A Little Something earns its 4.9 rating the hard way: structured curriculum by age group, bilingual instruction, and a format that keeps kids cooking rather than watching. For expat families rotating through Bangkok, the six-location network means you are rarely far from a branch, and the school-holiday camps fill a genuine childcare gap. This is the best-organised kids cooking programme in the city.
Founded in 2009 and now operating six Bangkok branches, A Little Something built its reputation on one simple idea: children learn better by doing. The Sukhumvit 49 head office sits on the second floor of the Racquet Club Building, a low-key compound that trades the mall-noise of competing locations for a quieter, more focused session environment. Classes run Monday through Thursday and Saturday to Sunday from 9:30 AM to 6 PM, giving working families enough scheduling flexibility to book without reshuffling the week.
The programme divides into four age tiers, each with a different kitchen brief. Toddlers from 19 months to three years attend with a parent, making it as much a bonding class as a cooking one. Kinder covers three to six year olds working on foundational skills like measuring and mixing. Junior Cook takes children from six to ten into more independent recipe work, and Teen Chef runs from ten to sixteen, where the sessions start resembling a proper cooking class rather than supervised play. All tiers are conducted in both English and Thai, which matters in a city where many households run bilingual and neither language should be the disadvantage.
Free parking in the Racquet Club lot removes the usual Sukhumvit 49 headache.
Beyond the regular schedule, the school runs cooking camps during every Bangkok school break and offers after-school cooking activities embedded inside partner schools across the city. Birthday party bookings are available, structured around baking and decorating the birthday cake rather than passive entertainment. Corporate workshops and on-site school ECAs round out what is, at this point, a full-service culinary education operation rather than a weekend activity.
