Description:
How are you supposed to get your kids to eat the recommended five portions of fruit and vegetables a day • How do you get them to eat even one or two?
The answer is simple: you trick them into it. All you need to do is disguise or conceal healthy food and your children won’t notice -or even know - they’re eating it.
This is the real world, so you need practical ideas that will work in a busy household with a realistic budget. Well here, at last, you’ll find the answers:
• how much is a portion of fruit or vegetables
• what to hide and how to hide it
• how to save time and effort
• how to feed the family a healthier diet than before (even if it isn’t always perfect)
• ideas for breakfast, snacks, main meals, lunchboxes, parties, eating out and holidays
If you’ve already tried being honest with your kids and it hasn’t worked, maybe it's time to start hiding the vegetables.
Target Audience:
Parents with kids.
