🍔Listen, I love a good drive-thru & fast food occasionally, but how do you balance it all out for your kids, especially your picky eater?

👋🏼Hi, I’m Melanie, a feeding specialist & 6X author on the topic of raising healthy, happy eaters AND first and foremost, a mom of 2 very different eaters.

✨Recent research indicates what may be obvious to some…veggies & fruits NEED TO SHOW UP in your home for kids to eventually fall in love with them. BUT, what about when fast food shows up near schools, in neighborhoods and where our older kids hang out a lot? How the heck can we overcome that influence?

🥦🍇🥕Well, this study suggests that what foods you have at home as compared to your “neighborhood food environment” helps to decrease your kid’s fast food consumption. In short, keep those fruits and vegetables showing up in your kitchen. Don’t give up. It does make a difference!

❓Want to help your younger kids fall in love with veggies NOW? Comment #books and I’ll send you the link to all my books, including Adventures in Veggieland: Help your Kids Learn to Love Vegetables with 100 Easy and Fun Activities & Recipes! 🥑🍅🥦Thanks to you – my publisher has agreed to release it in paperback with all the same colorful photos but at a much lower price than the previous format!
