Key points that you will learn in this episode:
✔️ Value mealtime bonding. Recent studies have found that people of all ages who eat with loved ones are far healthier than others who don't. Kids will eat more fruits and vegetables when eating with their parents and less junk food and less soda. And adults and kids get more essential nutrients like calcium, fiber, and iron needed for fitter bodies when they eat with their family at home.
✔️ Set age-appropriate tasks and enlist kids in the preparation of the meal. A three-year-old can set the table with napkins and plastic cups. Five-year-olds can peel oranges for a fruit salad while a ten-year-old can measure and mix ingredients or chop something up with your assistance. This requires a hefty serving of patience, but the result is well worth it. Be mellow and relaxed, and remember you're shaping their experience.
✔️ Avoid comparing siblings for several reasons. Those with more than one child should understand that they don't share the same food tastes and eat the same portions. Involve them by taking them up to the grocery store with you. Allow them to choose a new item that they want to try or an old favorite and tell them it's experimentation time at dinner. It takes eleven times to try something before they decide they like it.
