Reshaping Your Food… Literally.
We all know the battle of kids and vegetables.
One day we started pulling up carrots from my brother-in-law’s garden, and suddenly the kids couldn’t get enough carrots! It was just fun eating them straight out of the garden.
The other day, I decided to let them play with their carrots again (and added in some parsnips). I cut them into squares, triangles, circles, half circles, and sticks. I threw table manners out the window and let them play whatever imaginary game they wanted. Casey built houses. Robin built rockets to the moon. Zach excitedly showed us his knowledge of shape names. Planets and rockets went into the black hole that was Robin’s mouth.
I’ve never had an easier time getting them to eat carrots. It even worked one other time… then, they were bored of that game. But hey, better some meals, than none!
