Making fruits and veggies even more fun.
This blog, The Vegetarian Salmon, is pretty much like a bible to me. The author is very observant, strong-willed and keeps things simple. Every now and again, she mentions her vegetarian one-year-old (crazy, huh?). It gets me to thinking what it might mean some day, for my children. Something tells me I will not force a particular diet on them one way or another - with or without meat consumption, but it opens my eyes to the correct, healthy way of going about it.
Although she is raising her daughter, little Serafina, in a veg manner, she is definitely more concerned about a balanced diet, as she switches up her meals so much so, that picky habits are almost nonexistent. Impressive. She shared information about an interactive way for children to be more involved in their diets and teach them healthy habits, all in the name of fun! Today I Ate a Rainbow has gained a great amount of attention due to one of their most popular products, a magnetic, refridgerator chart that allows children to mark when they have eaten a red, orange, yellow, green or purple fruit or vegetable. Something good for the adults to get in on, as well. It's brilliant.
