Mumsnet Talk

I'm trying to get DD1 to make healthy choices when it comes to snacks. Frankly she doesn't listen to a word I say and I must be honest that I'm not very good at this stuff either. However sometimes if we read books together I can start a conversation.

Anyone know a good book about healthy food and why it's better/ how it works on the body? She's 4 so a lift the flappy thing might be good. I'm not really looking for a recipe book.

Thanks in advance!

Bump for the evening crowd

Maybe not quite what you're looking for, but do you know Herb The Vegetarian Dragon? Mine loved it at that age (still do, actually).

There's a Herb child-friendly recipie book, too, if you want to make a few veggie things.

Sorry, I'm aware that you're not asking for specifically veggie suggestions, but it's the only one I can think of.

Actually DH and I are vegetarian, so that's a great suggestion thanks!

I hope it's still in print, it was published by Barefoot Books.

"Oliver's Vegetables"
The charlie and Lola one - something like "I absolutely will never eat tomatoes"
Both great for 4 yrs.
