It Starts With YOU!

You are the most important model for your child's good eating habits. Fill your plate with a variety of nutritious foods, including vegetables. "Let your child see that you enjoy -- or are willing to taste -- vegetables and other nutritious foods," advises Kostelc. "Young children often want a taste of what you are eating. Encourage them to taste the vegetables on your plate. Good nutrition is something you want to share."
