Today we're talking about something that can be an unexpected complication in blended family life - and that's mealtime. Getting kids to eat nutrient-packed food is hard enough, but add in a two-house dynamic where kids may have different rules and expectations around what they eat and it can get downright thorny. That's where Katie Kimball comes in. Mom of four and founder of Kitchen Stewardship, Katie and I talk about how to navigate picky eaters and encourage good habits, even when the other house has different rules.  And she tells us about her FREE Life Skills Camp coming up this summer, where CEOs, chefs, tv hosts, and others will teach your kids and teens all kinds of useful skills that they'll use in everyday life. It's a phenomenal resource to help kids feel (and become) more self-sufficient.  About Katie: Katie Kimball helps change kids' relationship to food, both through work in the kitchen and helping parents of picky eaters. She's a former teacher, two-time TEDx speaker, writer, and mom of 4 kids. She created the Kids Cook Real Food eCourse, which was recommended by The Wall Street Journal as the best online cooking class for kids.

In today's Healthy Parenting Handbook episode, I'm going to take 5 different arguments against kids doing chores and learning life skills and counter them with facts, stories, research, and a big ol' dose of common sense.These are real arguments I hear from both well-meaning parents AND keyboard warriors on social media, plus one from a well-established expert I heard on a podcast that I simply do not agree with!If you've ever had to listen to someone say it's cruelty to make your kids clean a bathroom or have felt yourself that maybe kids are busy enough - maybe life skills aren't important to learn now - this one's for you.Resources I Mention for Chores and Life SkillsReserve your spot in our 2025 Life Skills Now Summer CampPurchase access to Life Skills Now Season One from 2022, Season Two from 2023, or Season 3 from 20243 Reasons Giving Kids Responsibility is a GiftJoin us for free #LifeSkillsNow camp this summer!

As parents, we spend so much time making sure our kids succeed in school, sports, and activities—but are we teaching them the life skills they'll need to thrive in the real world?

We dive into the research on kids' independence, the long-term benefits of hands-on learning, and practical ways to help kids build confidence and responsibility—without overwhelm.

Imagine with me…your kids can take over a whole dinner meal and cook it themselves while you get something else done!It's a dream that has become reality times three for me here at the Kids Cook Real Food™ household.I realized I've shared the process we used to gradually release cooking responsibility and teach our kids to cook a whole dinner by themselves many times on other podcasts when I'm the guest. It's about time I share it with you as well!It's a multi-step process:Let the kids watch you make a recipe.Watch them make the recipe while you're there with reminders.Let them make the same recipe while you're available in the house for questions.Then they can make that recipe with zero help from you.For 3-9 months, the kids should make the same recipe weekly to learn it to a mastery level.Then in the second year of kid's cooking night (or second phase), you can let them make their old favorite every other week. In the interim weeks, they need to try other recipes.This allows them to take on the physical labor of cooking first, then gradually ease into the mental load portion as you help them meal plan side-by-side.We've used this process with three kids so far, and the fourth won't be far behind!You can watch Paul and Leah's “old favorite recipe” for pizza right here. This is a great one to watch with your kids as it has Paul's early teenage creativity stamped all over it.Resources We Mention for Kids Cooking DinnerGet started teaching your kids to cookSome of Paul's favorite recipes to make: cheeseburger soup or pinto galloYou can see Paul and Leah's pizza recipe here along with their entire process.

Did you know the pre-frontal cortex where executive functioning lives doesn't fully develop until our early 30s???I still struggle with some executive functioning skills like time management and following a plan, but if I learned anything from this interview, it's that we ALL can continue to grow, change, and improve. You are not married to your weaknesses!If we can help our kids BEST develop their executive function, they will be more independent, better at their jobs, find deeper relationships, and be better parents themselves. It's THAT important!My guest today, Noel Foy, helps us understand what executive functioning is, how it develops over time, and some really practical ways to build it best in our kids.Her question, “What is your plan for that?” is pure gold, and I know you'll love all the little strategies she shares to reduce anxiety in our kids while improving their executive function.

How about some stats to make you sad? Kids are on screens an average of 7 hours a day…and we spend 85% of our parenting energy on what our kids are doing wrong.Aw, man!It stinks to start with the negative.In fact, that will train our brains to see more negative things, which is why I did it.Do you feel more down after reading that?

Way back when my husband and I were new-ish parents, he read a headline that talked about parents being “bone tired” at the end of the day.For years, we referred to that phrase: “We're BONE TIRED. Parents are all BONE TIRED.” (Put a little lilt and emphasis on “bone” and you can hear us in your head now.)As it turns out, Dr. Evan Hirsch would recommend that we stop with those negative thoughts, because they're not going to take us anywhere good. He's an international expert on chronic fatigue (and now long haulers), and this was an interview I was HIGHLY looking forward to. I was right!Prepare to be fascinated by Dr. Hirsch's wisdom on:The 33 causes of fatigueHow you KNOW you have chronic fatigue (and aren't just bone tired like every other parent out there – and it's way easier than I expected to figure it out!)Why solving your chronic fatigue may also make you live longerWhy some people become long haulers and others don't (this has fascinated me for a while and I couldn't wait to discuss it!)Dr. Hirsch's process for helping people reverse chronic fatigue (that more or less translates to long haul)How you know if 5 jumping jacks is pushing your body too muchA simple “recipe” to raise healthy kids (i.e. what an integrative MD would tell you to do to prevent your kids from getting chronic illnesses and BOOST their real energy — not the sugar-laden kind — to help them live happier lives now)THE most important technique he recommends to everyone, preventative and restorative (and there are only 4 steps to it and zero cost!!!)I'm going to be thinking about this interview for a long time … can't wait to hear what you think about it.This episode is sponsored by Chef Junior, the cookbook BY kids FOR kids!

TedX Speaker, author and mother of 4 Katie Kimball is on the pod today to discuss the concept of picky eating and how it is not solely about the food! What?? I know. She introduces the five P's that contribute to picky eating: palate, pain, processing, pressure, and power. She emphasizes the importance of understanding the physiological and sensory aspects of eating, as well as the impact of pressure and power dynamics in the parent-child relationship. This episode will unlock so much powerful info for parents in this battle. Even if you don't have a "picky eater," you have an eater. In this conversation Katie and I talk about how to support our children in listening to their bodies, making their own choices when it comes to food (with boundaries!) and helping them to build a healthy exploratory relationship between themselves and the food. What a gift to give them! This episode was a wealth of information on a topic I know we all struggle with daily, I got so much out of it and I know you will too! Takeaways Picky eating is not solely about the food; it is influenced by various factors such as palate, pain, processing, pressure, and power. Understanding the physiological and sensory aspects of eating can help parents address picky eating behaviors. Pressure and power dynamics in the parent-child relationship can contribute to picky eating. Allowing children to listen to their bodies and make their own choices when it comes to food is important for developing a healthy relationship with food. Parents should focus on praising the process rather than the results when it comes to eating. Set boundaries and provide structure around meal times to teach kids to listen to their bodies and make healthy food choices. Establish snack time boundaries and say no to certain foods to create a balanced approach to eating. Teach kids to eat well by preparing the space, leading with healthy options, and maintaining a poker face. Exposure to a variety of foods is important, and it may take multiple attempts for a child to develop a taste for certain foods. Avoid short order cooking and catering to picky preferences, as it can exacerbate the problem. Cooking with kids builds their confidence, develops life skills, and creates positive associations with food.

What used to be sliced oranges served to kids after a rigorous game has turned into a goody bag full of sugary snacks that kids are fighting over! There's a better alternative!Our guest, Katie Kimball, brings her expertise to the table in our enlightening discussion on the current culture of sports snacks for kids. As a seasoned advocate for real food education through her KidsCookRealFood.com business, Katie unpacks the frustrations many parents share over the sugary treats dominating children's sports. We examine the myths surrounding young athletes' supposed need for these snacks and consider the broader implications for our kids' understanding of nutrition and health.The snack situation in children's sports is more than just a debate over food choices—it's a reflection of what we value in youth activities. Through anecdotes like that of a nine-year-old more concerned about the goody bag than the game, we uncover the misplaced priorities that treats can bring to team sports. Our conversation ventures into the potential advantages of ditching the standard snack roster altogether, from simplifying life for parents to instilling a sense of sportsmanship and specialness to celebrations in young players. Katie and I share insights on how presenting healthier options not only enhances athletic performance but also fosters an all-inclusive environment for kids with varying dietary needs.Wrapping up our chat, we shift gears to the empowering steps families can take to promote a balanced relationship with food. From leveraging screen time for educational cooking lessons to setting family food rules, we provide practical tips for parents to navigate the snack-laden landscapes of sports and everyday life. Our dialogue extends an invitation to families to join a community that values wholesome nutrition, and we celebrate the positive changes that come with informed food choices.

In today's Healthy Parenting Handbook, I'm going to take 5 different arguments against kids doing chores and learning life skills and counter them with facts, stories, research, and a big ol' dose of common sense.These are real arguments I hear from both well-meaning parents AND keyboard warriors on social media, plus one from a well-established expert I heard on a podcast that I simply do not agree with!If you've ever had to listen to someone say it's cruelty to make your kids clean a bathroom or have felt yourself that maybe kids are busy enough - maybe life skills aren't important to learn now - this one's for you.Resources I Mention for Chores and Life SkillsReserve your spot in our 2024 Life Skills Now Summer CampPurchase access to Life Skills Now Season One from 2022 or Season Two from 20233 Reasons Giving Kids Responsibility Is a Gift Kitchen Stewardship Kids Cook Real Food Register for #LifeSkillsNow Season 3 Virtual Summer Camp! follow Katie on Instagram follow Kids Cook Real Food on Facebook Subscribe to the newsletter to get weekly updates YouTube shorts channel for HPH Find the Healthy Parenting Handbook at kidscookrealfood.com/podcast Affiliate links used here.

In today's episode, we tackle the question: How do we raise  critical thinkers and children who can think for themselves and ask questions, in a world that doesn't want them to? (add embed podcast here!) In this interview, we talk with Katie Kimball of Kitchen Stewardship about how we can raise our children in a world that doesn't share our values and doesn't encourage free thinking. We specifically discuss the concepts of nutrition and food, navigating technology and social media, how to parent when your kids feel different from their peers, and more. Key points: Raising critical thinkers starts at a young age. How to navigate being "the only one" when it comes to technology rules and parenting decisions within a friend/school group. How to best prepare our children for the world ahead, starting with some basics like kitchen skills. Action Items & Next Steps: Checkout Katie's free Life Skills Now summer camp It's a free virtual camp over the summer where kids will learn those real life skills they aren't being taught in school!

  " I really just want my family to be raised on the best food possible and have a good relationship with food because I can look at myself and I have that habit where I want something sweet after every meal. Like my mouth, this doesn't taste right. If it's like egg aftertaste or like hamburger after this, I'm like, I really want a chocolate aftertaste going on.  And I can see that that was created in my childhood, and I think, gosh, you know, what habits are we giving our kids about how they think about food and how they think about  eating and engaging with food? And I just really want them to have good habits instead of having to break bad habits.
