Summer brings with it plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Even so, your kids might turn their noses up at eating these healthy options -- and instead clamor for ice cream and slushies.
Bonnie McDaniel, author of Farm Girl in The City: Of Food and Love, suggests making a day of going to a local farmer's market or even dining at a farm-to-table establishment. Some markets even have fun educational programs that kids can participate in.
You can always task your kids with searching for fun, yummy recipes that you'll incorporate the foods you pick up at the market.
If you're able to have a garden, kids may garner satisfaction from eating the foods they've planted and harvested.
Listen as Bonnie joins host Lisa Davis to share tips for getting your kids to eat more healthy and fresh foods.
