By involving them in cooking from an early age and explaining to them why a fresh, balanced diet is important, we lay the foundations for lifelong healthy eating habits.   <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6840551 ik-w-text e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"6840551\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-078549d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"078549d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Why is healthy eating important for children?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6bf4caa elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6bf4caa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<p>Children are at a crucial stage in their growth and development, so it is important that they are provided with all the nutrients they need.

children has several advantages &#8211; much more than just satisfying hunger! Get your children actively involved in the cooking process. Whether it&#8217;s washing vegetables, weighing ingredients or kneading dough, taking part is not only fun for the children, but also boosts their cooking skills and confidence in the kitchen.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Encourage your children to be creative and try out new foods. Experimenting with different flavors and textures stimulates their curiosity and makes eating a fun adventure. At the same time, you can use the time spent cooking to talk to your children about the importance of a balanced diet. Explain to them why certain foods are important and how they help them stay strong and healthy.   <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-082d64f ik-w-text e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"082d64f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-04077db elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"04077db\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Springtime, seasonal recipe tips<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-98e8e5a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"98e8e5a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<p>So much for the theory &#8211; time for some practical recipe tips that are perfect for spring and will go down well with young and old alike!<\/p>\n\n<p>Spring vegetable quiche<\/p>\n\n<p>This colorful quiche is packed with fresh spring vegetables such as asparagus, peas and spring onions. Children can help prepare the dough, wash and cut the vegetables and then add them to the dough. This quiche is perfect for a light lunch or dinner and can be eaten warm or cold.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Colorful spring minestrone<\/p>\n\n<p>A hearty spring minestrone is a delicious, nutritious and filling meal for the whole family. Your children can help chop spring vegetables such as carrots, celery and leeks and then add the ingredients to a large pot. Add vegetable broth, tomatoes and noodles and let the soup simmer until all the flavors have melded. Serve the spring minestrone with a sprinkling of freshly grated Parmesan &#8211; it will be even tastier!   <\/p>\n\n<p>Vegetable sticks with homemade spring quark &#038; cress<\/p>\n\n<p>A full load of flavor from the garden! Cut carrots, cucumbers, peppers and kohlrabi into strips and mix with (home-grown) garden herbs, quark and a few spices to make a dip. Sprinkle some cress on top and you have a light, colorful snack for in between meals &#8211; it also works great as a snack for kindergarten or school.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Strawberry and rhubarb crumble<\/p>\n\n<p>For a sweet finish, try this fruity strawberry and rhubarb crumble. Your children can help wash and cut the strawberries and rhubarb stalks and then pour the fruity filling into a baking dish. For the crumble, they can mix oat flakes, wholemeal flour, butter and brown sugar and sprinkle over the fruit. After baking, you can enjoy the delicious crumble with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or add some fresh strawberries as a topping.   <\/p>\n\n<p>So grab your kids and their aprons and let&#8217;s get cooking as a family!<\/p>\n\n<p>Good sleep is crucial for the immune system in adults and children.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By involving them in cooking from an early age and explaining to them why a fresh, balanced diet is important, we lay the foundations for lifelong healthy eating habits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13520,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[74],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13519","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nutrition"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inne-kids.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13519","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inne-kids.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inne-kids.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inne-kids.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inne-kids.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13519"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/inne-kids.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13519\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13521,"href":"https:\/\/inne-kids.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13519\/revisions\/13521"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inne-kids.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13520"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inne-kids.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13519"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inne-kids.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13519"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inne-kids.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13519"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
