Things That Make People Go Aww Review
I am a huge advocate for reading to children, especially my own child. I also encourage healthy eating in our house. Teddy Tries a Veggie helps me accomplish both of those goals. Teddy is a 6 year old little girl that loves to garden and help in the kitchen but she hates vegetables. I have a 5 year old little girl that also loves to garden and help in the kitchen. However, I’m lucky, she’ll eat a fair amount of vegetables.
Encourage Kids to Try New Vegetables with this Fun eBook
There have been times — and there still are — when food has been a struggle for us with the girl. We like a much more varied menu than she does, and would be a lot closer to vegetarian without her influence over our meal planning.
Sometimes reading a book or watching a show about a topic makes it easier to open the door to discussion and maybe actually encourage kids to try new vegetables, too.
Do you like vegetables? Do you dread those veggies sitting on your plate? In the book ‘Teddy Tries a Veggie’ there are lots of facts and fun things about veggies to help you like them. I show you a few ideas as well 😉 Hope you enjoy ‘Cook with Brooke’!

My kids loved reading this book. I can attest to the fact that reading and learning more about food helped them become less picky and more adventurous when it came to trying new things! Even though they’re over the really picky stage, it was a good book to help them learn more about making healthy choices, and why it’s so important.
