Moms cooking for healthy eating habitsDecades ago, women were expected to be masters of domestic trades — like cooking and baking. Many women today don't know how to cook or choose not to on a regular basis. Then they have children and their lil ones arouse an awareness of health and nutrition that may have been dormant pre-baby. Moms want their kids to be healthy, eat right and exercise. And a growing number of studies show that healthy eating habits start at home.

Did you learn how to cook after you became a mom? Do you eat more meals at home now that you have children? Share your thoughts on children's nutrition and your favorite kid-friendly recipes in the comments below.

One of my favorites is called 10 Minutes Till Bedtime which is about a kid getting ready for bed when a hamster tour comes through his house. The artwork is adorable, and now there are instructions for you to make your own Ants on a Banana-Bus snack. So cute! - Hamster Tours via Neatorama

Should Parents Feed Their Children Kid-Friendly Foods?

Recently I have read a few interesting articles about the foods parents feed their children.

Recently I have read a few interesting articles about the foods parents feed their children. There are those who believe that kids should not eat grown up food and instead be fed a diet of plain buttered pasta, chicken strips, and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. On the other hand, there are an increasing number of advocates who feel that kids should eat exactly what the adults are eating. In fact, some claim that giving kids spaghetti-O's instead of the ragu you are eating will cause kids to become picky and unhealthy eaters when they grow up. Rachael Ray claims that she ate anchovies and other unusual foods as a youngster because her parents exposed her to these foods at an early age. Ruth Reichl, of Gourmet magazine, in her March editor's letter rants about irresponsible adults who feed their children dinosaur shaped chicken and heart shaped sandwiches. Where do you stand on this issue readers? Should parents feed their children kid friendly foods?

Lego Snacks: Play With Your Food

It's pretty obvious that the folks over at Kellogg's never listened when they were told not to play with their food. They've now teamed up with the folks at Lego to come up with Lego shaped "fun snacks." I wonder if they stack like real Legos. Just imagine, you could build a house and then devour it. You know you want too... just don't get the snacks mixed up with the real Legos, okay?

According to the packaging, the new fruit snacks come in three flavors, grape, cherry and something they're calling "graperry" which I'm assuming is grape and cherry combined. Also, the box has six colors shown, so why only three flavors? Maybe the elusive "graperry" is actually a quad-colored fruit?

Available in packs of 10 at a grocery store near you.
