Healthy Eating at a Glance
I have two toddler girls (sympathy much?), and knowing what to feed them in what proportions can be a difficult task while I’m cleaning spilled yogurt while fixing dinner while looking my absolute best in my fancy t-shirt and perfectly un-coiffed hair.
I’m so glad to have discovered the kid’s plates Super Healthy Kids to help me quickly see how much of each food group to serve my kiddos. The plate gets major bonus points for being so cute and attractive to my girls. Bonus, bonus - the plate is super durable. That way I don’t have to worry if my little Trouble decides to see how far she can throw her beans and her plate together. Triple bonus - the plate is ONLY $5.99!
Amy, the President of Super Healthy Kids, says this about her plate: “It’s not about denying, depriving, measuring, disciplining etc. It can be about enjoying wonderful, whole, natural food and realizing you feel better when you eat well. And the more the kids learn, the more empowered they will be to make good choices on their own.” Amy has blog that features healthy eating tips for kids at http://blog.superhealthykids.com/. Check it out for some great tips on how to trick teach your kids to eat healthy foods.

My niece loves corn and bananas.
Carrots and apples ONLY. Maybe this plate will help!? I can always hope, right?
Yummy veggies for my little guy is Celery! He would rather have celery than cookies! Oh, and dessert for him has to be a freshly peeled orange! Love the plates and soon to acquire two bonus children that would enjoy the plate passed to them. Thanks!
My little guy is a very fussy eater, but he loves cucumbers. His favorite part are the seeds and he tries to gnaw them out of the middle without eating the rind!

My oldest likes green beans and all fruits and my youngest likes carrots best and every fruit known to man as well.
I’m thinking maybe this plate would be a good diet aid for me too, hehe!
My 2 year old daughter loves mushrooms, salad, green beans, and all fruit. She also eats just about all her other veggies as well. Except zucchini. She has never liked it since stopping baby food. However, we finally got her to eat nearly a whole zucchini spear, so hopefully we have started something new.
my daughter loves broccii and mangos

My 19 month old loves broccoli and corn on the cob. My 6 year old has declared a moritorium on most vegetables (she used to eat everything), but will willingly eat carrot sticks as long as there’s some ranch to dip them in. Maybe a plate like that will help convince her that she needs a bigger helping of carrots.
My 19 month old LOVES tomatoes and broccoli and almost anything else that is healthy! We lucked out! He’s not much one for junk food. Now if we could convince his older sister she doesn’t need junk food to survive!
corn, carrots, melons or it depends on what day it is! (he’s 2)
Creamed spinach is a big favorite and we’re never without raisins
My daughter is a blueberry freak! If she could she would eat that and bananas only.
=-)
Isn’t it funny? My 3 year old loves cucumbers and apples, and my almost 2 year old likes broccoli or actually almost anything. But neither of them like much protein.
My kid loves McDonald’s chicken nuggets and their french fries.
My oldest will only eat apples, grapes and green beans! My youngest eats EVERYTHING! I would love to win!
Alexia’s last blog post..The Foreigner
The oldest 8 loves his cucumber, celery, lettuce etc, but wont eat his green veg ie broccoli, peas etc. He’ll eat literally any fruit though
the 4 year old isnt fussed at all, he’ll eat whatever is put in front of him apart from mushrooms.
ben is 2 and ADORES pear and carrotts, not together obviously but those are his faves, and then Izzie, the 11 month old will eat sweetcorn, peas, mashed carrots and swede and hot mushy apple for fruit
I have 4 year old twin boys. One is basically a fruitarian - anything from the fruit family is at the top of his list, but he especially loves strawberries. His brother eats veggies like you wouldn’t believe. Presented with a plate containing pizza and broccoli, he’ll always devour the broccoli and request more before he even touches the pizza! Friends told me two years ago that he’d outgrow this, but so far it hasn’t happened.
My daughter loves all fruits, her favorites are melons any kind of melons!
Getting either of my kids to eat vegetables is a daily fight. Love this plate! Their favorites are carrots and bananas.
Kids fave veggie- Green Beans! YUMMO!
Snow pea pods and strawberries!
My kids love sugar snap peas and raspberries (just not together)!
Cute plates! Both of my girls LOVE broccoli! They would eat it for every meal if I served it!
