What People Say
Thank you for organising such a fun and educational event. As an adult I also had a great time and learnt something about the dragon boat festival myself. The children's zong zi tasted delicious!
Joyful plates is such a wonderful and creative way of introducing cultural events to kids in a clever and interactive way. Well done to the organiser and the team for the amazing work!

A Little About Me
Hi, I’m Rachel, the founder of Joyful Plates and a mum to two little ones. Growing up in Singapore, food was always the heart of our home—a way to connect, celebrate, and share our heritage. Moving to Australia inspired me to recreate those connections, not just for my family, but for other families too.
​
Through Joyful Plates, I combine my love for food, culture, and education to create workshops and experiences that inspire families to cook, play, and learn together. My goal is to help you pass down your cultural traditions, discover new ones, and spend meaningful time with the people you love.
​
Let’s make the time we spend with our children joyful, memorable, and full of inspiration!
