Children's Nutrition: 10 Tips for Parents

Updated: Oct 12, 2011 2:56 PM PDT

Jenifer Alcorn joined us on Great Day Wednesday morning with tips for parents trying to instill healthy eating habits in their children.

  • Parents control the grocery list
  • From the foods you offer, kids get to choose what to eat
  • Quit the "clean-plate" club
  • Start young
  • Rewrite the kids' menu
  • Remember that drink calories count
  • Watch sweet intake
  • Food is not love
  • Be a food role model
  • Limit TV and computer time

Always consult your physician before beginning any diet or exercise program.
