Last weekend, my six year old daughter and I were grocery shopping together when all of a sudden she piped up with a brilliant idea, “Mommy – let’s buy enough food so that we can eat a rainbow snack when we get home”. So, off we went on a rainbow adventure through the grocery store. We had quite the health lesson as we perused through the fruit and vegetable aisles.
Here is what she chose for our snack:
Have you heard of Today I Ate a Rainbow? I don’t own any of these products, but they look super fun for teaching your children all about eating healthy foods. There are fun grocery lists, a book and even magnets.
I love to see kids eat fruits and vegetables. I so much love the idea. All my kids never ate canned baby food i prepare all the eat right inside my kitchen and i have introduced that to so many mothers out there and they are so happy that they can now prepare what their kids eat. Keep it up and have a great week.
I’ve not heard of this, but I LOVE the idea!
The more colourful the better in my book!
Thanks!!
Great idea. 🙂 I liked fruits and vegetables when I was a kid because my dad bought really fresh stuff and prepared it well if it was cooked. Most of the people I know who grew up disliking fruits and vegetables rarely had anything of good quality. Once they did, they liked it.
