Getting a child to eat vegetables can be a monumental task that most moms hope to accomplish in their lifetime.
We all know that many kids balk at vegetables.
Moms therefore try to find ways to “hide” vegetables in meals and casseroles, hoping their children do not notice the “green and orange stuff” hidden within their food. They whisper to their older children that they “better not say the word ‘vegetable’ or their younger siblings won’t eat supper!”
My girls eat vegetables every day. I’m not talking about vegetables hidden in food; I’m talking about fresh, raw, healthy vegetables! My girls cheer when they see I’m chopping up a plate of celery, carrots and green pepper!
Hop on over to Jill’s Home Remedies for fun and practical tips on teaching your own kids to eat more vegetables!
Monkey see, monkey do! I eat veggies and fruit and so do my kids. Although I do also hide vegetables in my meals, that is more for my husband than the kids! Our struggle with vegetables is keeping them in the house!
