When was the last time you or your kid gulped down those crispy fries? Do you remember the last time you eagerly looked at the clock to track those “30 minutes”, awaiting your pizza delivery? I do. I had a full value meal last month and a small chicken pizza with a big bottle of coke day before.
Do
you remember how you felt after having your meal? What did you do after? Did
you sleep? Or did you work? I went to bed almost immediately, cause I was so
felt so full, bloated and drained of energy. So the next day, at moms
insistence I had a huge bowl of salad before lunch, and yummy green leafy
veggie with hot rotis. Do you know what I did after? I travelled to college;
returned home after tiring (read boring) lectures, played a game of badminton
and now I’m writing this post. I’m sure most people have a similar experience,
but fail to notice the difference their meals have on their body.
I’ve
seen so many mothers tell their kids to restrict eating junk. To all those dear
loving moms: have you ever told them what to eat? And why to eat it? Children
have amazing reasoning and grasping powers. They ask intelligent
questions. And when they don’t get satisfactory answers, they’re bound to
overlook what you’ve said. When you tell them what not to, you’ve also
got to tell them why. In addition, you’ve also got to tell them what they
should do and why.
We
at Urban Leaves believe reaping what we sow and eating what we grow. Explore
the wonders of healthy food preparation and eating with your child in our
workshop.
If
you think there’s no other way to spend time with your kid apart from eating at
a restaurant or hitting the movies, here you go! Perk up your child's interest
in health and food. Children are motivated to eat healthy when they are
involved in the preparation of the food they eat. Have fun and bond with your
child while preparing food that is not only healthy, but also very very tasty!
Thank
us when your kid cooks you a lovely salad after you’ve had a tiring day at work
