Are you looking for a fun and educational way to get your kids to eat more fruits and vegetables? Try working your way through the alphabet! Starting with "A is for apple" will get you off on a tasty and familiar foot (and familiar is usually good when kids are concerned), but get ready to get creative. Ediets has an alphabetical list of ideas for each letter, including iceberg lettuce for "i" and an ugli fruit for "u." Don't forget to teach kids special nutritional facts about each fruit or vegetable, or give the job of looking up those facts to an older child who can teach everyone about the new food as you try it.

Keep in mind that no one wins when kids are forced to eat something they don't want to. Keep it light and fun, and your child may just add a whole alphabet of new and healthy tastes to their palate!
