Nanny to Mommy

Eww...Veggies..
Just kidding...kinda.
I have hang ups about a few veggies and actually raw carrots are one of them,
But no I don't want my daughter to have these hang ups.
I want her to have a better diet than me and not have to struggle with weightloss.

Recently we had the opportunity to review Copy-Kids Eat Fruits & Vegetables DVD. And in doing a little research on the product this is what I came across:
"Copy-Kids Eat Fruits & Vegetables is a media product designed to get young children enthusiastic about eating their fruits and vegetables. The DVD is divided into 6-8 minute chapters, each focusing on a different fruit or vegetable. DVD 1 contains: carrots, apples, tomatoes, bell pepper, broccoli, avocado, raspberries, blueberries, oranges, bananas, strawberries, and cucumber. Simple. Adorable. It features kids having such a good time eating fruits and veggies, that when children watch it, they want to join in. Featuring well-known pediatrician, Dr. Gordon, this product is a positive approach in the quest to get children eating healthy from the start."

So of course we were very excited to test it out.

First veggie we tested out were raw baby carrots. SweetPea actually doesn't have a problem with raw carrots. But B on the other hand...she had never had a raw carrot before this experiment and she loved them so much, both girls gobbled the entire bag. And I feel it's because she saw the children on the DVD eat with her and her best friend.

Enjoying watching the other children. She would say, "Kids, Kids!" and then take a bite when they would. It was very cute.

So busy enjoying her carrots she doesn't even have time for a picture!

We also tried bell pepper, although we weren't watching the DVD (we had just got done), but they were not fans.

Teaching good nutrition is such an important part of child raising, something I never realized before. I knew children needed to eat fruits and vegetables but I didn't realize that everything I do is being constantly watched by a little sponge. It's truly amazing.

Copy-Kids Eat Fruits & Vegetables DVD is an award winning DVD.



Copy-Kids Eat Fruits & Vegetables DVD was also approved by the USDA and added to their Education and Training Materials Database for pre-school nutrition.

This is how I feel this week. At least I didn't have to take both girls shopping this week. So how was your week?

Still no Poise at my store. :(
So didnt get any money makers. But a few things, I went to Publix twice (once HERE) and then Kroger. I also got some free MexAmerica products in the mail today for a product review so recipe to come soon! :)

There were some coupons that came out and I didn't get a chance to see them before I left, plus I went to Kroger for some essentials. I was planning on getting some more FREE Sunlight Dish Detergent but they were out, and also some more Muller FrutUp because it was SO good but I didn't have the coupons. :(
Again, I say, but apparently I can't listen to my own advice, anyways, always prepare for your grocery trip! :)
Saved 78% at Publix. Spent twice that at Kroger on practically nothing. :(
