We think this young lady's excitement for fresh corn is a-maize-ing 🤗🌽🎶! The #CornKid would approve🥰🌽!

Getting your children excited about fresh #fruits and #vegetables doesn't have to be complicated. Kids love colorful snacks, and another way to build excitement about snack time is to cut the snacks into fun shapes.

Eating a variety of #fruits and #vegetables is important for you and your family’s health. When preparing meals and snacks for your children remember, kids eat with their eyes👀, so let's make their plate bright, colorful, and fun🌈! This young man from Southmayd Elementary in @houstontxisd was so thrilled to see some colorful bell peppers in his family's #BrighterBites bags!

Healthy habits start in the kitchen🍳. When you get your kid involved in the kitchen, they have a better sense of where food comes from and are proud of what they create. Children are more likely to try foods that they had a hand in making, so let them get their hands dirty and get involved in the cooking process🧑‍🍳.
