Healthy Lunches
Get the kids involved
Getting your kids to help in the kitchen can encourage them to try new foods, eat from a variety of food groups and teach them vital skills, on how food is prepared and used. This helps them to build a healthy relationship with food, nourishing their growth and development. And who knows, maybe that is how our next little Master Chef is born.
- Plan lunch and shop with your kids on weekends. Choose what they like so they will enjoy their meal, which helps reduce waste too.
- Choose colorful vegetables and fruits
- Sunday FUN day - create and prepare lunch boxes together
- Design your own recipe book and let your kids’ creativity thrive.
- If you have a little herb garden or veggie patch, encourage your kids to plant and water them with you. They may be calling for their vegetables one day!
