Future Foodies Friday Tip -- Gardening Excitement







We have been watering our garden throughout this drought and it is working.  The boys love helping plant, water, and pick veggies from our garden. When kids feel like they have some ownership in the growing of the family food, they have pride in the results and want to enjoy them like the rest of the family. At least I believe they are more likely to try them and be excited about trying them.  So try to create some excitement about eating fresh veggies. If you don't have a garden maybe the way to create that excitement is to take your child to the local farmer's market and let them help you pick out some fresh summertime veggies.  Happy Friday!
