Did you know: When you introduce foods to children through books, they are more willing to try them?
WHY? because repeated exposure helps remove fear or the "unknown".
Eventually, that thing you "feared" becomes normal and not so scary.
So when an Ube is served at dinner, you're less likely to hear "NO!" "ewww" "Gross!"

Give the gift of health this holiday to the kiddos in your life. Cookies and cake and hot chocolate are yum (my daughter can confirm this fact) but after the candy cane sugar rush, let's get them excited to see fruits and vegetables once again. Even if they just wanna play with them. Any exposure is good exposure, am I right?
ABC's book of fruits and veggies 🍓🌲

A wonderful way to use NOM NOM ABC to get kids to explore the myriad of fruits of veggies available to us. @niruus
Btw did you know, you have to see something at least 7 times before you're inclined to buy it?
The same principal applied for kids, just because they had something once doesn't mean they will like it.
Just keep
Trying
Again
And
Again
And
again
The largest tree fruit in the world, jackfruit -- can be up to 3 feet long and 20 inches wide. Just one fruit can weigh as much as 110 pounds 😲
Commonly found in, India, srilanka, Thailand, Brazil, Australia.
Sweet and aromatic.
Sometimes gooey, sometimes crunchy.
But ALWAYS delicious.
Seeds can be eaten roasted, and tastes like an unsweetened version of a chestnut 🌰 (chestnuts roasting on a open fire...)
PRO TIP: oil your hands and knife before cutting into the fruit, as the sap is very sticky.

Gentle exposure. ⠀
There is a theory in marketing that says that someone has to see something 7 times before they buy it. It's no different for kids trying new foods. ⠀
⠀
The more times they see something and in different forms, the more likely they will be willing to try it :) even if they don't like it the first time they try it. ⠀
⠀
That's why pictures of real fruits and veggies in books are an easy way to introduce unfamiliar and new foods to your kiddos. ⠀
⠀
so dear parents, try, try, try, and try again, again, and again. ⠀
You will eventually win them over, and meal times will be fun, again. ⠀
