"SuperFoods for Babies and Children"
SuperFoods for Babies and Children If you have a baby or young child, you may already know that it is not always easy to feed them healthy or nutritious meals. Sometimes it's not all that easy to plan them either. Your child might be a picky eater, or you might be in need of some healthy recipes to make mealtime fun for your family. If you want to give your child a great start in life, the best way is to provide them with a balance of healthy foods. But where do parents begin to look?

One such place is in the book, "SuperFoods for Babies and Children," by Annabel Karmel. What an excellent resource! Here are just a few of the wonderful treasures I found in this informative book:

Detailed, healthy recipes for main meals and desserts, categorized by age;

Sample meal planners, categorized by age;

Numerous food tips and the importance of a variety of each of the foods in our everyday diet;

What foods you should avoid giving your baby;

How to shop for healthy foods;

Much information on eating "superfoods" by colors and how you can give your child the best start in life by eating a well-balanced diet.

This book also has a section that discusses food allergies and lists foods to cure common ailments.

The steps are clearly detailed beginning at 6 months of age -- what foods you should begin introducing to your child...how to know if they are ready for solids...how to make baby food...and sample meal planners for the first 4 weeks of first solid foods. There are large colorful photographs of meals, and cute vegetable and fruit illustrations throughout the book. Short "Did you know?" facts and other side bar tips give you a quick look at important food information and how those foods can benefit our bodies.

MyParenTime.com highly recommends this book -- informative content, clear appetizing food photos, and an abundance of ideas, make this book a winner! But be warned -- you might have some real fun creating these meals, and your child may beg you to make more healthy meals for them!
