This super simple snack is a great twist on the classic "Ants on a Log". Simply swap the peanut butter for almond butter and the raisins for chopped dates and you have an elevated snack with a hilarious name!

Did you know that research shows us that instead of emphasizing how "healthy" or "good for you" a food is to our children, parents may have more success when they simply label these "healthy" foods with more fun names?

Get your kids in the kitchen with you! Have your children break apart the broccoli heads into florets with their hands... kids LOVE this step. The broccoli is going to be steamed and pulsed in a food processor so the florets do not need to be uniform in size.

​Broccoli florets look like little trees just as they are... so let's take it up a notch and make a whole scene for your forest! This super simple food art created by Eat Pretty Darling is a great way to make broccoli fun for kids.

Have your child rip the broccoli florets off and lick their fingers, this allows them to try the broccoli flavor just a teeny tiny bit before putting a whole bite in their mouth.

This is a great broccoli recipe to make with kids because they can practice cutting and breaking broccoli florets into pieces. The pieces then get cooked and blended so it doesn’t matter if they are all the same size. This green soup is great served with grilled cheese for dipping, crackers, or plain toast. You can also top it with a little extra cheese or some broccoli “sprinkles”!

Sometimes soup is difficult for children to eat with a spoon so give them some other "tools" to try their soup with. Examples include a straw (those large silicone straws work great for soup), a large scoop from a protein powder container, and dippers such as grilled cheese or crackers.

​Encourage your children to snack on the individual ingredients while they construct these radish planets and have them cut the radishes in half (with adult assistance) using a kid-safe knife or butter knife.
