Not in the top five: my own favorite blog post

Jan 4, 2011 by Anna Migeon

Happy New Year, as we start 2011 helping you improve your child’s diet and appetite together!  Let me know how I can help you.

The top five Sacred Appetite reader favorite blog posts this year don’t even include my personal favorite: How to Get Kids to Eat at the Table, Part III. It comes in response to a reader’s question about how to get her kids to quit dawdling at the table. I think it’s underrated. It sums up well a key idea that I’ve formulated this year: instead of ever pushing food on kids, look for ways to pull food away, restrict their access to food, and don’t put up with bad behavior. It’s a plan that improves both behavior and eating habits.

I think it’s got some pretty good advice, if I do say so myself.

The five top Sacred Appetite reader choice awards (according to number of views) of 2010 were given to:

1.  Five DOs and DON’Ts of Dealing with Dessert for Kids, from August 2010

2. Ratatouille: Everybody can cook, from January 2010
