Getting kids to eat can be a constant battle for some parents, while others may be restricting their child's caloric intake to thwart weight gain. In this program childhood feeding expert Dr. Katja Rowell presents six segments that address the food-related issues facing many families with young children. Offering practical techniques that make meals pleasant for everyone at the table, the goal is to raise children who have a healthy relationship with food and with their bodies. Topics include making family meals happen, helping picky eaters, eating in restaurants, feeding children labeled overweight, feeding children labeled underweight, and healthy snacking.
