I get to share with everyone a fun activity that I like to do with my boy to encourage healthy eating. Although this is not something we do on an regular basis, it is an activity that Ashton has really taken to lately and I have found it is a great way to get him familiar with and trying new fruits and vegetables.

The more children can smell, feel, taste and experience unfamiliar foods the more likely they will be to try it and eventually add it to their “LIKED” foods list.

So today we made FRUIT AND VEGE SCULPTURES! Check out our Vlog to see what we made! It was very fun! I think Ashton ate more as we went than what he actually used for his sculptures!

If you have a fun activity that you like to do with your children to encourage them to eat more fruits and veges… please share!

Watch Ashton at approx. 20 seconds in to the video.
