Mena's teacher suggested that we talk with our children about fruits and veggies. I expanded the idea to include all the food groups. I found some pictures on the internet. Mena gets to help pick out foods from each group for supper. When she eats something from a food group then she tapes that piece onto the picture of the plate. When it was time for snack, I asked her what food group she hadn't eaten any from. She pointed to the protein. We talked about what foods are in that group and she chose one for snack. She thinks it is fun to eat healthy!!
