It only comes around once a year.
But it's so popular reservations are almost needed.

At Oakwood Intermediate School in College Station, Special Education students go all out for the Little Cooks café.
The kids get a true taste of food service by learning to take orders, serve up food and just learn life skills.
Hundreds of people have been served here over the last three days.

Restaurants around the community provide the food, plates and utensils for this annual event.
The lessons the special ed. students learn last a lifetime.

Good job! I think this is a good thing! I bet it makes the kids excited to learn a life skill, and learn how to interact with other people! I used to work with special ed kids, and they are some of the sweetest, most trusting kids. God bless them!
