Pea Shapes

One of the best ways to make a picky eater more comfortable around a food is to have them play with it! There’s no pressure to eat it but it gets them to engage with the food in a new way and you never know, they might even try a bite.​ This "Pea Shapes" recipe created by Eat Pretty Darling is a super simple and engaging way for your children to play with peas!

"Learn to Love Veggies" Tip

Have your kids ever tried peas straight from the freezer? Many children prefer veggies this way! Frozen peas are easy for kids to pick up and the peas thaw pretty quickly, making them easy to eat.

Note, babies and toddlers can start eating frozen peas as soon as they start teething (bonus: they help with teething pains!).
