How do you get a toddler to love vegetables and put the cookies aside? Do you introduce whole vegetables or hide them in more fun foods? What is the feeding responsibility of the toddler versus the parent? How does nutrition affect IQ?
In a free form conversation with my cousin Abby, mother to an almost 16 month old son, I try to answer some of these questions. We explain how we arrived at our feeding philosophies and how our own relationship with food affects the way we introduce it to our children. We aren’t experts, but we are readers, so we share our own experiences in addition to some of our favorite food/feeding resources.
