Mom and Dad's idea of a great dinner doesn't always match Junior's. The following sites dish out fun food ideas for finicky
eaters:
- Recipes Kids Can Cook
This collection is not only appetizing, it's easy to prepare.
Pre-schoolers can help with these recipes - including colored
celery, giant pretzels, sandwich roll-ups, funny face carrot salad
and oatmeal chews - and then enjoy the fruits of their own labor.
- The Problems of Poor Eating
This site addresses childhood nutrition problems such as inactivity,
obesity and poor eating habits. It also offers parents tips on how
to correct them. The Feeding Kids Newsletter serves up recipes,
school lunch evaluations and eating tips for teenagers.
- Sugar-Free Recipes
Kids love sugar, but too much of it can have adverse effects.
This sugar-free collection includes banana, strawberry
and tangy cherry milkshakes; bran-apple and blueberry muffins; carrot
cake and cookies.
- Juice Land for Kids
Offers fun, easy
recipes that young cooks can whip up on their own, such as Frosty Sticks,
Watermelon Mountain Trail Mix and Fruitland Kabobs. Kids can also
squeeze entertainment out of the site's crossword puzzles and
coloring book pages.
