Head to a Local Farmers Market
Taking the kids to a local farmers market is a great way for kids to have fun and learn about local foods! Here are some fun ideas:
1. Allow kids to shop and make their own purchases. Kids are more likely to eat veggies and fruit that they choose and counting money provides real life math.
2. Allow kids to plan a meal or snack. Kids can pick a recipe, shop for the ingredients and help make the meal when they get home.
3. Allow kids to talk to farmers. Kids can learn where and how the food is grown.
4. Try a new vegetable or fruit. Kids are more likely to try something new when exploring the market.
