It’s always best (for both your palate and wallet) to choose as many seasonal fruits and veggies to use for meals and snacks. We tend to think that winter brings in the cold and desolate weather, however there are many crops that prefer this climate and will taste so much better this time of year. Look for these fruits and veggies at the store next time and consider using one that you or your child have never tried before!
If you’re at a loss on how to prepare or what to make with these fruits and veggies, check out this link to some great recipes with each: https://snaped.fns.usda.gov/resources/nutrition-education-materials/seasonal-produce-guide/winter

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Americans turned to mobile devices and televisions, more than ever, for entertainment, news, education, and communication. Almost 4 years later, adults and kids alike remain benefited by technology – from connecting with family and friends, to Telehealth visits with physicians, and even listening to a podcast in the car. Phones can be addicting, distracting, and even dangerous, when overused or used inappropriately, which is why it is so important to unplug for awhile throughout each day. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no more than two hours of technology for those children 5 years and older, however much less for those younger.
Need help with ideas on how to make this a new year’s resolution for yourself and your kids? It’s never too late to start making progress; check out these tips and recommendations by the Mayo Clinic to see if they’ll work for your family: https://mcpress.mayoclinic.org/parenting/unplugging-your-family-tips-to-make-it-work/#:~:text=To put media use in,hours or less per day.
