Encourage her to include all the 5 food groups in her diet daily: carbohydrates (cereal, bread, rice, pasta), fruits/vegetables, meats/proteins, milk, and desserts (the triangle at the top of the pyramid). You can teach her about the different types of meals: chinese, italian, mexican, and american. Be creative.

Great site with kids recipes with a french flare. Easy Recipes For Kids Teach your children to cook You'll find a lot of easy recipes for kids here at Easy French Food because we have a resident kid chef, Max, who is eager to share his recipes and tips with you. Max is our 10 year old son and the youngest in the family.

For years I resisted cooking with the kids. Every once in a while I'd let them create something, usually along the lines of Harry Potter inspired bierre beurre or sea biscuits, which were supposed to last for years onboard ship. But I never really encouraged them.

I think I was afraid of the mess. I already had enough of those going in other parts of the house. I needed my kitchen to be in some sort of reasonable order I suppose.

But then Max came along and he so much likes to cook, that I just couldn't resist him. It would have been unnatural. And the amazing thing I found out, it's fun to cook with a kid!

Especially a kid that really wants to learn to cook. And as for the mess? We clean it up as we go.

If he's stirring, I'm washing out a bowl. If I'm chopping, he's putting an ingredient away. Things Max has learned along the way: How to use a knife How to read a recipe Improved his math skills (we're always going back and forth between French recipes and Mom's attachment to cups and tablespoons) Heightened his appreciation of food.

He loves to guess the ingredients in a dish now. Max's Kitchen Rules for Kids Always wash your hands before preparing food. Start out with easy recipes for kids and work your way up.

Begin with things that are easy to cut and a small knife. Learn the correct way to turn on the stove and oven. Help your kids out with this until you feel comfortable letting them do it on their own.

I still take things out of the oven for Max because I sense he doesn't have the needed confidence yet. (Says his mom who spilt a bowl of hot onion soup all over the floor the other night. ) Pick up after yourself, that means putting all of the ingredients away where they belong, putting the dirty dishes in the dishwasher, and wiping the counter top.
