If you’ve ever (briefly!) thought about duct-taping your kid to a chair while you wedge a forkful of spinach into their mouth, you know the frustration and anxiety many parents experience around kids’ nutrition.
“Are they eating enough?”
“Are they getting the right nutrients?”
“Why won’t they eat anything green??”
“Am I failing as a parent???”
“WHO’S IN CHARGE HERE ANYWAY?!”
We feel you.
The good news: It is possible to help kids get the nutrients they need without everything being perfect. Because let’s face it: When does that ever happen?
We’ve worked with over 100,000 clients—many of whom are parents and guardians looking to bring more peace to mealtime and more greens to their fridge.
Here’s what we tell them: You don’t need to win the Best School Lunch contest, make the world’s healthiest family dinners, or demand your kids eat a heaping plateful of vegetables.
Instead, we recommend another approach: Be gently persistent, and take the long view.
When kids have some choice and control, a basic understanding of why nutrition matters, and a safe, low-stress environment to try some food experiments… a lot can change. (For the better.)
Check out the infographic below for nine ways to help your little ones make healthier food choices on their own.
Plus, five recipes that draw on family-favorite foods that most kids will love. No duct tape required.
