Make eating fruits and vegetables fun for kids! Decorate dishes with fruit and vegetable garnishes.
Eating 5 A Day can be fun for kids. Top off a bowl of cereal with a smiling face featuring sliced bananas for eyes, raisins for a nose, and an orange slice for a mouth.

Eat dried fruit instead of candy.
Make frozen fruit kabobs for kids using pineapple chunks, bananas, grapes, and berries.
Go shopping with your children and let them pick out a new fruit and vegetable to try.
