Dear Homeschoolers, Stay at Home Moms & Childcare Providers,

Can we lend you a hand? I know you are busy with your day to day tasks and sometimes it is hard to find healthy foods that your kids enjoy.

Perhaps you just don't have the time to get creative and think about what you are going to serve for breakfast and lunch every single day. Maybe it is just easier to hand over the macaroni, day in and day out, to steer clear of the meltdown your toddler might have if you don't serve his favorite meal?

You Need Quick And Easy Meals Your Kids Will Actually Eat!

However, that does not mean you need to serve the same foods every single day. There are many fun and easy breakfast and lunch recipes for kids. How about Breakfast Pizza or Cheese and Meat Pinwheels to change things up a bit? It is important for the nutrition of our children to have a balanced assortment of foods in their diet. In addition, their little taste buds need to be exposed to variety to help them learn to appreciate various foods as they grow.

You Have Helped Me Serve My Children A Balance Of Different Foods Every Day!

One of the things that stresses me out more than anything is what to feed my kids. As you can imagine, three times a day - every day is a lot of stress to deal with. I'm so thankful for your kid friendly menus. It not only gets rid of the uncertainty, it helps make sure I expose my kids to as many foods as possible and feed them a balance of different foods every day.

Last Minute Dashes To The Grocery Store Have Been Eliminated

As a homeschooling mom to three active kids with another on the way, meal preparation and planning is one of my biggest daily challenges. I've spent many moments standing at my open fridge or cabinets wondering, "What should I cook?" Finding out I didn't have everything on hand for a tasty, balanced meal meant far too many inconvenient midweek dashes to the grocery store. Not to mention, an uncontrollable grocery budget due to far too many impulse purchases. Kid Approved Meals has saved me countless indecisive moments in the kitchen and given me a realistic and manageable grocery budget. And the best part of all? No more, "What are we going to eat, Mom?" I simply glance at our meal plan or direct my kids to do so!
~ Jenn Coligado

WOW, I've Been Waiting For Something Like This For SOOO Long!

Having a meal plan is essential for every mom - saves money, time and sanity! The thing is, while I had lots of great dinner ideas, I still had a tough time deciding what to feed the kids during the day. I knew that variety was important but I needed them to like the food too. So often I would just take the easy route and make them the same tried and true things over and over again.

Now with your help, I have lots of great meal ideas to try! The kids are happy, and I can fly through meal planning (and shopping too - thanks to your great shopping lists!) The pressure is off - YAY! Thanks Christine!

My Son Noticed A Difference Right Away - He Loves The New Recipes We Are Trying.

I just wanted to say thank you so much for the Kid Approved Meals Menu Pack. I'm a busy mom and so many times I've made the same ol' things because it was easy. Now you've made it easy for me to make a variety of great meal choices. My son noticed the difference right away and loves having 'fresh' meals for breakfast and lunch time. One thing I find very handy is the shopping list for each week. I'm the type who just grabs stuff and usually doesn't get everything I need in one trip to the grocery store. With the lists you provide I don't have to worry about forgetting anything because it's all there, just perfect... Thanks again!

I Hadn't Realized How "Spoiled" I'd Become Having A Nice Organized Grocery List.

Customer Sue Edwards recently writes:

Yesterday my computer was acting up and I wasn't able to print the menu for the week. I needed to get to the grocery store - so I sat down and jotted out a menu/grocery list on a piece of notebook paper. It took me almost an hour to complete.

When I was finished my list was not organized. In the end, my shopping trip took me forever because my list was so confusing! I hadn't realized how "spoiled" I'd become having a nice, organized grocery list. I can't tell you how many times I had to retrace steps to find something I'd missed. In the end, I still didn't get everything on my list!

You don't realize how much you appreciate something until it's missing! Thank you so much for your service.
