Family sit down meals. If you asked me my number one tip to instill healthy eating habits in kids at any age - it’s going to be a family meal. Whether that’s breakfast or dinner due to schedules during the school year, either is great. Talking about making healthier choices doesn’t have nearly the same impact as having a balanced meal made, and them seeing parents eat as well. I know schedules are crazy these days. If family meals aren’t happening at all, start with a couple times a week. Vote on meal choices to get them involved. Last night was taco night….lots of variations on that one, and typically a hit!
