Talk Up Healthy Eating

The more your child knows about nutritious foods, the better choices she'll make. Get her involved in grocery shopping! I have done this since my daughter was a toddler & now do it with a friend's daughter whom I watch.

We will talk about whether this or that food has lot's of sugar in it. Or does it help your eyes or your tummy or your bones etc, etc,... It is a fun way of getting kids to think about what they put in their boddies & how it may or may not benefit them.

Next time you're at the store with your little ones, give it a shot. It can be a lot of fun & it might be a bit of an eye openner when you realize how much they may or may not know!
