One of the biggest problems any parent has is with getting their kids to eat their veggies. I don’t know what it is, but parents of every generation has this problem, and it’s a rampant feeling across the globe!

One way is to make interesting vegetarian recipes that kids will love, like delicious fruit salad or fruit Popsicles. Another way is to get them to fall in love with veggies, so that you can solve the problem from the root. The best way to do this is by making fun crafts with veggies, like our Printable Fruit Theme Shape Match.
