Hello! I’m Melinda Beasi, Managing Director at FoodPlay Productions, and also the editor of our new FoodPlay blog. In the coming weeks, we’ll be establishing a number of new regular features, beginning today with FoodPlay Friday.
Every Friday, we’ll round up some of the best articles we’ve read during the week and offer them up for your perusal. As a fairly new entity in the kids’ nutrition blogosphere, there’s a lot for us to explore, so if you’ve got a great kid or family-focused nutrition blog to share, please drop me a line at melinda@foodplay.com!
It’s back-to-school time here in North America, and Tiffany at Nature Moms Blog has some tips to share for building a Healthy Lunchbox. At Meals Matter, Debbie Asada tells us how to get kids invested in their own lunch choices by making lunch preparation a family activity. And Mommy Dietitian Angela Lemond explains how the HealthierUS School Challenge may be transforming your kids’ school lunches.
The school year isn’t all about lunch, of course! Hot breakfast is the coziest for a crisp September morning, and Amy at Super Healthy Kids offers up a recipe for apple cinnamon oatmeal that looks absolutely delicious. Snack time is simple with these Honey + Sea Salt Roasted Chickpeas from Estela at Weekly Bite, or some scrumptious no-bake Peanut Butter Balls from Sally at Real Mom Nutrition. And the Meal Makeover Moms spice up any meal with their Garden Fresh Tomato & Avocado Salsa.
Lastly, a guest blogger at The Children’s Medical Center of Dayton‘s official blog reminds us all to Get out there and PLAY!
That’s all for this week! See you next FoodPlay Friday!
