Getting Kids to Eat Well

It takes more than just preparing the right foods to psych your kids into eating right. Check out this advice:

Get your kids involved in the entire meal planning process from making the grocery list to shopping for foods to meal preparation and cooking.
Serve kid-size portions and make them ask for seconds
Don’t give up on serving healthy foods too quickly. Research has shown that it takes as many as 10 to 15 exposures for a child to accept a new food.
Don’t use high-fat or sugary desserts as rewards. Don’t forbid sweets, but serve them in moderation.
Eat meals as a family and set a good example by eating well yourself.

Be creative and your kids will have fun while they eat healthy!
