Clever Moms

I always thought I was creative in getting my kiddos to eat when they were little. (Teens and Pre-Teens are not a problem. N.S. has a hollow leg).
Peas were called green balls, broccoli were baby trees, and you never knew what color ketchup or milk might show up on the table. But here is a tip I HAD to pass along that I read today.
You know those giant rolls of craft paper? We used to roll it on the table and you could draw and eat at the same time And have a simple cleanup. I stole that idea from the Macaroni Grill on I-10 Freeway, but it worked Great!
Some clever Mom one upped my idea: Write the kids food on the paper and let them check the box as they eat their: Meat, Veggie and Milk. It's like a chore chart with stars only quick pay off for every meal.
Thank you to all Clever Moms out there!
