Getting a toddler to eat right can be tricky. You want your child to eat enough, and you want meals to be nutritious, not junk. From wrangling a picky eater to offering key nutrients, here’s what you can do to encourage your toddler to healthier foods.
3 Ways to encourage your toddler to eat healthy
Avoid placing restrictions on food. Restricting food increases the risk your child may develop eating disorders such as anorexia or bulimia later in life. It can also have a negative effect on growth and development. Instead of banning foods, talk about all the healthy, nutritional options there are — encouraging your family to chose fruits, vegetables, whole grain, lean meals, and low-fat dairy while avoiding heavily processed, low quality junk foods.
Keep Healthy food at hand. Children will eat whats available. Keep fruits in a bowl on the counter, not buried in the crisper section of your fridge. Remember your child can only choose foods that you stock in the house. And have an apple for your own snack. Your actions scream louder than anything you will ever tell them.
Don’t label foods as “good” or “bad”. Instead, tie food to things your child cares about, such as sports or doing well in school. Let your child know that lean protein such as turkey and calcium in dairy products give them strength for sports. The antioxidants in fruits and vegetables add luster to skin and hair, and eating a healthy breakfast can make them focus in class

Millians Trip To Chicago’s Taste Fest
My trip to Chicago was so amazing. I enjoyed every aspect there. The people are very friendly and nice. I went with my husband, my sister, and her friend. There were a lot of nationalities there Chinese, Indian, Jamaican, Caucasian, African American, and many more. The food at the Chicago Taste Fest was different from the food here in Detroit. You have to buy tickets to get food. i found that very interesting and fun. although i didn’t get a chance to taste food from every stand every stand was unique in its own way.

I tried the pickle fries,jerk chicken and ice cream. My favorite was the ice cream it was mixed with orange sherbet, chocolate, vanilla and pecan. Although i wasn’t to found of the other food i got in still enjoyed tasting it.
Pickle FriesJerk Chicken
I cant believe i ate crickets for the first time and i have to say that it wasnt bad at all they actually taste like sunflower seeds. There were lots of games to play that did not require any tickets like basketball, kick the ball on the target, fishing, and many more. There were concerts and bars music was playing and everyone was having fun.

My bus ride was very long i left out on saturday at 1:30 am i got on the travel bus at 6:30am and we arrived at the chicago taste fest at 10:45am. The bus had tvs and comfortable seating, a friendly bus driver and the bus was clean. I brought snacks and the host also provided snacks ( finger sandwiches, chips, pop, and jello shots),
Millian and Hubby
Chicagos riverwalk is different from detroits river walk. Chicago has a big water fall that everyone plays in and detroit has a slash pad where water shoots out from the ground. i visted a few stores there and their prices for certain items are different from the ones in detroit.

By this being my first experience traveling outside of michigan i enjoyed my time, the people i was around and the fair. I would definatly come back again to visit.

We all have those times when our kids get on our nerves and we have to make that call to grandma/grandpa.
I have 4 kids and everyday I always say to myself ” why cant I have just one break.” Me being a stay at home mom I’m with my kids 24/7, while my husband is at work. I’m losing my mind running in this room because someone is crying, changing diapers all day (feels like I’m changing 100 diapers a day) I’m cleaning up messes everywhere. I’m ready to rip out my hair.
I thought I finally got a break but my childrens grandmother could only get one of my children so I picked my oldest daughter because she the bossy one and what ever she tells her brothers to do they do it. I figured they would be ok for a few hours, but boy was I wrong as soon as she left to go with her grandmother my kids started crying so bad I started to cry because I couldn’t get them to stop crying.
I started to miss her after 3 minutes. I could not deal with my kids crying because their sister wasn’t here it was the most frustrating thing ive ever had to go through. It made me feel bad and I realized me sending my kids off when they are getting on my nerves only makes matters worse because not only would my kids not stop crying but I couldn’t either. She’s having fun and here I am blowing her grandmothers phone up every 5 minutes to ask what they are doing.
p.s. shes gone with her grandmother before but since we moved in our new home shes hasn’t been away from home
-I may not be perfect but when I look at my children I know that I got something in my life perfectly right.
