My kids went to a title I public elementary school that had a program called Kids Cook! It was great. They got a cookbook every month with low cost, nutritious recipes (based on a regional cuisine). Once a month, they cooked a sample meal and learned how to handle kitchen knives properly, about cross contamination, open flames, how to clean up afterwards. We still use some of those recipes in our family.

As for setting up a kitchen, between thrift shops and dollar stores, you can get most of the basics relatively cheaply, if you know what you’re looking for.
