Looks like this change is going to push my creativity for the kids. Instead of being lazy and giving the kids the bag of pretzels for a snack, I'm going to have to help them find something. Not really a big deal, but definitely need to get a little creative to get them to think past pretzels as a snack.
Today we did Ants on a Log - celery, peanut butter, and raisins. Each child ate 2 "logs". While it proved quite messy, they both enjoyed something different.
It will be nice, of course, after I go to the store and buy more veggies, to just send them to the fridge to grab a container of precut veggies. And once I find some softer nuts, perhaps cashews, we can include those as well. Looking forward to having an excuse to add some different types of foods into the rotation!
By eating healthy foods, including eliminating wheat and most grains, enjoying time outside without gadgets, and teaching our children about the world, we hope to raise our children to enjoy life and be free of physical maladies. Follow us on our journey towards general health and a sense of well being.
