My kids are really good eaters. I have been very lucky in that they really love their fruits and veggies. BUT, there is one item they won’t even try; and that is a tomato. So, when our Copy-Kids Eat Fruits and Vegetables DVD arrived I was very excited to see that one of the items featured was a tomato!!!
What is Copy-Kids, you ask? Well, it is an adorable video filled with twelve chapters, one for each of twelve fruits & veggies: bell peppers, bananas, oranges, carrots, strawberries, avocado, raspberries, tomatoes, apples, broccoli, cucumber, blueberries. The DVD is approved by the USDA and added to their Education and Training Materials Database for pre-school nutrition
Since we tend to spend a lot of time in our car driving to gymnastics, school, play dates, or swimming I chose it as a perfect time to introduce this new video. I put it in and gave Little Miss the remote. The movie is very cool because you just choose which chapter you want your child to watch and then press play. Within seconds your child will see a segment filled with children ages 9 months to 4 years, laughing and giggling while eating the fruit or vegetable. What I thought was amazing was that in no-time, my kids were giggling and laughing, as well; I guess laughter really is contagious.
Little Miss, age three, seemed to be the one to enjoy the video the most. She loved that she could choose which chapter to watch and had a blast watching chapter after chapter, even the ones about the fruits and veggies that she already loves. It was actually very funny because she loves cucumbers and each time she sees that particular chapter she screams, “Look, Mama, they are just like me, they love their cucumbers!”
Now, I won’t tell you that immediately after watching the tomato chapter a couple times, that my kids jumped up and down asking to try one; but I will tell you that one night at dinner Little Miss did NOT pick the tomato out of her salad, instead she tried it. This was something she would not do in the past. After trying it, she made a funny face and said, “Mama, it didn’t make me want to laugh like in the movie!” Ha, ha, ha!!!
So, all in all, this video was a hit with our family and I can understand why it has won awards from Dr. Toy, MACT, and Parent Tested, Parent Approved. I really enjoyed the on-camera discussion about healthy eating with renowned pediatrician Dr. Jay Gordon and all the kids really got a kick out of the funny outakes. Plus, the fact that the video did indeed encourage Little Miss to try something she would not try before, is a huge step in the right direction, in my book.

Tomatos, my kids will eat anything green to their hearts content but they turn up their noses at tomato, which aggravates me b/c it’s a total super food
It’s my Grandson and I would love if he would eat any of those foods. The child will not touch Veggies or fruit, except bananas. He will pick out the smallest bit of green pepper or onion or broccoli from his food. He’s 2 and refused to eat for a whole day, not a bite, cause we pushed veggies. He used to eat them all, now he will not.
avocado

Even though my children are grown and gone, I will have to base this on my grandchildren and the one thing I wish they would eat more of when their at my house is bell peppers. For some reason when you tell them it’s not “hot” they just don’t believe it, and say that all peppers are “hot” LOL I still try though

They don’t really eat many kinds of veggies they love corn and carrots so I guess Id like for them to eat more veg. They aren’t really picky though about their fruits. I have six kiddos.

Avocado! My daughter loves all veggies and fruit, except I cannot get her to eat avocados or squash.
Broccoli, I love it, my kids hate it!
Broccoli is the one veggie that our house has the hardest time with. I love it! I learned to sprinkle a little cheese on the broccoli.It seems to make it easier for the little ones to eat. Yummy!
I would love my kids just to give any new fruit or veggie a try!
To be honest I would love for my 3 year old son to eat any kind of vegetable. He is so picky I can’t get him to eat anything!
My kids eat most everything, but some are pickier about tomatoes.

Broccoli. My son won’t even look at it.
1 of my 5 y.o. twin girls won’t eat ANY veggies xcept hummus (she doesn’t know it’s chick peas!) & only bananas. She will eat other fruits IF I put them in a smoothie, but I wish she’d eat more fresh fruits & veggies.
I would love it if they ate tomatoes and carrots more
