    10 Stress-free Ways to Get Kids Eating Healthy Food for Life

    Parents, do your kids gladly eat vegetables and shun pizza? If you said yes, congratulations. If you said no, join the club. My husband and I eat a diet rich in farm-fresh seasonal vegetables, but our 5-year-old is not quite as keen. Never fear! There are a few simple, low-stress ways to encourage even the pickiest of eaters to hit the healthy stuff, and shape a lifetime of good eating habits. - By Elizabeth Stark and Brian Campbell

      Get Kids Involved
      In the kitchen or garden, empowered, knowledgeable kids are more likely to opt for vegetables and fruits. Help kids to understand where food comes from and how it's made; visit a local farm even! They are way more likely to try something they've made, picked, or grown than something that effortlessly appears before them.
      Head out to the farm!
