Story | Through the Ben’s Beginners™ Cooking Contest, the UNCLE BEN’S® Brand has a campaign that encourages parents and their children to cook together. This year through a revealing video, we have taken extra measures to highlight the importance of cooking as an important life skill, similar to reading or writing. Created by BBDO San Francisco, “HomeworkDirect” is based on the insight that parents invest a lot when it comes to their children’s education, but they are largely not teaching them to cook. In this 2-minute film that runs online, a wide range of parents are asked if they would sign up for a service to perform their children’s homework and if they regularly taught their children these important cooking lessons. The results were incredible. |
