Family Food and FunFood and Fun for Kids:I heard this one the radio the other day, I thought it was a joke. Apparently, it's not. Burger King is looking into ways to become more nutritious for kids under 12. This includes flamed boiled chicken and apple slices resembling french fries to make eating fun for kids. They're also planning to cut advertisement. These are the Fun Facts, they will now aim their ads to kids meals that have 560 calories or less.
My thoughts on this (food for kids) campaign?Well, when you go to places like McDonalds or Burger King, wouldn't you assume that you're eating unhealthy food? And, Burger King's new mission is to inform parents with fun facts? I think it's the parents who need to step up and do something to begin with. Do research and separate the food for adults from the food for kids. They need to start early on the right track with nutrition. Like my health teacher said, start early, because if you don't it will be too hard to change later on.Food and Fun•Have the guests put on the Kids Chef Hats and wash their hands •Line up next to the kitchen table and make the lasagnas •Put the lasagnas in the oven •Clear the table and make the Salad ; place the veggies on paper plates marked with each child's name (optional) •Move to the family room and play Blindfold the Cook •Set the table with the cloth place mats and fabric markers; invite the kids to come find their seats and start decorating their place mats •Clear the markers and set the table with plastic forks, knives, and spoons, and paper cups •Place the slightly cooled lasagnas on the paper plates, next to the Salad, and let everyone dig in •Serve the Adorable Apron Cake (with ice cream!) •Pass out the party favors •Cover the kids' leftover lasagnas to send home cooking party AFTER THE PARTY. •Use recipe cards* again for a thank-you-for-coming card--and include the recipe for My Own Lasagna and photos of the back of the house kitchen staff who wears the kids chef hats.
