Today on The Nourished Child Podcast, I’m talking to Amy Roskelley and Natalie Monson from Super Healthy Kids.
Super Healthy Kids is a tremendous resource, created by two real moms, offering recipes that encourage parents to share healthy meals with their kids in a variety of ways. One of my favorite things about the Super Healthy Kids’ website is their focus on raising adventurous eaters!
Amy and Natalie discuss their core beliefs around food and feeding children and how they incorporate them into their work at Super Healthy Kids. Their dedication to helping parents expand their idea of what constitutes healthy meals and a healthy relationship with food for their child is apparent in the inspiration they share in their meal plans and fresh dinner ideas.
Our conversation today emphasizes how parents can relax into the long-term goal of raising a well-nourished child rather than getting caught up in the minutia of day-to-day struggles around food choices and preferences.
We love cooking and creating with our kids. If they want to make a batch of homemade chocolate chip cookies, there's more to it than just eating the cookie out of a box. There's connection, there's experience, there's memories. Click To Tweet
