It's been a long grueling day at school...or so I've been told, and my boys always walk in the door almost starving, so they whine. Healthy snacks is sometimes a challenge as they are both very picky!
They both like vanilla yogurt. Today I just happened to pick up bananas and fresh strawberries on my home. They won't necessarily make anything for themselves, they usually want it done for them, so I was sneaky.
I got out a beautiful bowl, scooped in 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt and beautifully sliced 3 fresh strawberries on top. They watched, almost drooling, and decided that didn't look as healthy as I had made it sound. A minute later they got out bowls and duplicated my efforts.
The watch and learn method of teaching those healthy eating habits. It's hard to tell them what to do at their age, now I'm more of a supervisor/manager in their lives. As long as I do my best to lead by example they do follow, and I'm so proud of them!
Many blessings always,
Maile
