I saw an article in the Chicago tribune , discussing whether hiding vegetables in your kids food is a good idea. I found it interesting. I am going to admit this now. Even though my husband and I tend to eat healthy, we still struggle with getting our almost two-year old to eat his vegetables. Now that he is almost two, he is becoming even more defiant. There are days when he takes one look at the vegetables on his plate and flat-out throws them on the floor. ( He is punished accordingly as appropriate as we know how to punish a two-year old)
We still have A LOT of work to do. I still believe that as he continues to watch us eat healthy, he will still improve. He has gotten better at, at least TRYING each thing on his plate before he decides he doesn’t like it.
I am not necessarily a huge fan of hiding vegetables in just cookies and then using those to supplement this issue. But if you take time ( as I did) to browse the internet, there are some fun and healthy ways to get your kids to eat their veggies without necessarily ” ticking” them into thinking that they are eating a cookie or cake”.
I find that perhaps changing the texture of the vegetable is all I need to get my son to like it.
I have rounded up some fun ways for kids to enjoy vegetables. The ( Kind of) Sneaky way.
Us Mom’s can be pretty sneaky, you know.
