Get your kids to eat Seafood!

Getting kids to try new foods can be a real challenge. But with a little creativity, you can unlock the sea's treasures and turn your little ones into seafood fans!

1. Make it Fun and Interactive:

• Cooking Together: Involve your kids in the kitchen! Let them help measure, stir, and even decorate their own seafood dishes.

• Seafood Scavenger Hunt: Make mealtime an adventure! Hide "treasures" (like small shrimp or other fun seafood bites) around their plates and let them "hunt" for them.

• Creative Names: Give your seafood dishes fun and exciting names like "Pirate Shrimp" or "Mermaid Salmon."

2. Explore Different Flavors and Textures:

• Start Simple: Begin with milder-flavored fish like salmon or tilapia. These are easy to cook and have a gentle taste that most kids enjoy.

• Add Flavor with Fun Toppings: Get creative with toppings! Let kids add their favorite sauces, like honey mustard, or even a drizzle of tartar sauce. Sprinkle on some colorful veggies like shredded carrots or diced cucumbers.

• Make it fun: Use dinosaur-shaped nuggets and fish patties to add more fun to the meal

3. Make it a Family Affair:

• Family Seafood Nights: Dedicate one night a week to enjoying a delicious seafood meal together.

• Tell Stories: Share stories about where the seafood came from and how it was caught.

4. Healthy and Delicious picks:

• Fish nuggets: A classic for a reason! Try baking them instead of frying for a healthier option.

• Fish bombs: Easy to prepare and fun to eat.

• Fish Patties: A delicious and nutritious meal for kids under 1 year.

5. Don't Give Up!

It may take some time for your kids to develop a taste for seafood. Be patient, keep trying new things, and make it a fun and enjoyable experience.
