She never eats the apple skin!

Come on mom's how do you get your children to eat the skins of their apple? Or in general how do you get your children to eat veggies? Or, how do you get your children to not be picky and just eat?

Eating has always been an issue for my daughter. She is so picky! It takes her about 20 times seeing it before she finally will try it and every time she figures out she loves it! For instance we eat rice a lot and it took her until this year to finally try it and now she gobbles it up. She is not big on eating any cooked veggies so I have to hide them in things. She does like spinach and carrots and corn. Spinach is "leaves and broccoli is "trees."

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way.
