3 Easy Ways

to get your

kids around

the table

Children - the most fulfilment you will ever

have in your life and sometimes the most
frustration. Anyone who has tried to

persuade a toddler to do anything that they
don't feel like doing at that moment in time
will know how hard a task it can be. These

three top tips will help make meal times the
best of times and help avoid any toddler
tantrums round the dinner table

Make Food Time Fun. Whether you're creating
smiley faces from their vegetables or animal
shaped snacks - being creative with your food
presentation will help engage your little ones in
meal times. Using themed cutlery from their
favourite characters is another great way to
bring children around the dinner table.

Involve your Children in the Cooking. Children
are incredibly creative and there is no better way
to engage them than through cooking. Whether
they are mashing the potatoes or decorating the
cake, involving your children in the cooking
process is fun and will give them a greater
appreciation of what goes into preparing their
food.

Engage your children in the Shopping and Meal
Planning . Involving your little ones in the
shopping and meal planning can be educational
and will help in getting your little ones to feel
engaged in meal times.
