Talking to some other moms about trying to get kids to eat-- one suggested I post some of my recipes on my blog, or start a blog. While it sounds like fun, the truth is that the market is saturated with such resources. I encourage you to try your google finger and go for it. Some of my favorite things I've found is moms who are using the new, brightly colored silicone muffin pans or muffin cups to serve fun finger foods or regular old meals to their kids. The kids of course eat the food because of the new and exciting packaging.
One of my favorite Web Magazines is doing a two week series on all things kid and food related. Getting this news in my inbox today makes me really glad I didn't spend a lot of time trying to create this myself: They have a great staff who has done a fantastic job, I'm sure. Go check it out if you have any interest in anything kid or food related! And don't be holding your breath for me to come out with anything to compete with it.

Thanks for the link, I'll go check it out. I'm having food issues here with my toddler. I thought I would be the parent who didn't force food, but then along came my daughter who is always hovering in the last few percentiles possible for height, but especially weight...and now I'm battling her (and myself!) on whether to and how to encourage her to eat! *sigh*
If you want cute "packaging" for food, look up Bento boxes. They are a Japanese creation, but loads of people are making them now.
