I can't wait until my new grandson, is old enough to participate in this kind of experience! What fun, allowing your kids to choose veggies and fruit from the following colors and encouraging them to help you prepare a meal using their choices! So what if they choose blueberries and snap peas? It's their choice. Work with it. My favorite way to prepare a meal based on ingredients we have on hand: "Google what you got!"
