As the decision maker in your household, you play an important role in guiding your family to build healthy habits. Enjoying a meal together is a great way to connect with your family. Here are some mealtime tips to try:

📺 Remove distractions by turning off the TV and making a phone “parking spot” away from the table.

🗣 Have everyone share what they did during the day. What made you laugh or what you did for fun?

🥗 Try new foods at home. Kids need many opportunities to taste a new food to “get used to it.”

🍽 Have adults and older kids talk about the color, feel, or flavor of foods. It’ll make them sound more appealing to younger kids that may be picky.

🧺 On nice days, opt for a change of scenery. For example, go to a nearby park for a dinner picnic.

Do you try to control your kid’s behavior?

Many of us try — probably because so many people think it’s a parent’s JOB to control their kid!

💥 Newsflash: You can’t actually control your kid’s behavior! Yes, they’re your child, but they’re also human beings and realistically you can’t *make* them do or not do something, any more than you can *make* your partner put their dirty laundry in the hamper instead of on the floor. 😅

🤔 So many parent struggles stem from us trying to get kids to change how they act. What if we thought about it in a different way?

🧠 If we focus instead on what we CAN control—our own behavior!—we can still guide kids towards the essential skills and behaviors they need to learn, without turning everything into a battle of wills.

😌 It starts by taking a deep breath and making your response into a calm, kind “I” statement. This also helps model the type of behavior you’re trying to teach.

💯 Notice that many of these examples include setting up logical, enforceable consequences for our kids…but framing them in a way that gives kids the space to make their own choices, and learn from those choices.
