Kids Cuisine

One thing we don’t have a lot of here on Kids Cuisine is restaurant reviews. Our writers tend to focus on healthy and interesting ways of cooking in, which is great! But occasionally, you may want to take the whole family out somewhere nice.

I remember my mother making homemade popsicles when I was a child—what a treat! I can’t wait to make them for my daugther this spring and summer. The variety of popsicles a home chef can make is limitless, and the number of popsicles molds is endless.
The basic popsicle recipe is super easy:
3 ounces of your […]

Do you have leftover Easter candy tempting your family? We tried to take it easy with the candy this year, but we still have more than enough. Eating it… well, that will just pack in the calories. What if you got a little more creative?

Varying my daughter’s after-school snack can be challenging at times.  She’s easy to please and would be thrilled to eat an apple every day or eat a bowl of raw veggies with dip.  Every once in a while I like to surprise her with something a little different.  Today is just such a day.  And […]

I remember the looks I got from the other moms in the park when I admitted that my daughter, at the time only 3 years old, liked tea.
“Aren’t you worried about the caffeine?” one mom ventured?
Not particularly, I told her. Especially since it didn’t seem to have any impact on her sleeping. She drank it […]

Kids’ lunch boxes live a tough life — on the way to school they may be dropped, kicked, sat on, etc. This kind of treatment does not bode well for the condition of the lunch box contents. I’ve opened many a lunch box to find squished sandwiches, broken cookies or crackers, and–worst of all–bruised fruit. […]

Childhood obesity is rampant in our society. All of us must take responsibility in stemming this problem first at home, leading by example with healthy meals, reducing the consumption of sugar-laced drinks, eliminating fast-food meals, and increasing exercise and outdoor activities.
Don’t misinterpret me, though. There’s nothing wrong with letting kids be kids and enjoy candy […]

In addition to jelly beans, another classic Easter treat has got to be the Cadbury Cream Egg. I grew up in England, and these were definitely all the rage during the ’80s. They have become almost as ubiquitous in America these days, and more excitingly, there are now chocolate and caramel eggs from Cadbury. I […]

One of the foods that my children enjoy time and time again is pie.  Mostly fruit pies, but on occasion a crème pie may work its way in there.  Hands down the favorite is apple, followed closely by pumpkin and cherry.  The other day my son asked if I could make apple pie, and the […]

I read an alarming post over at Bloggingstocks this morning. It wrote about how the FDA is likely to green-light the marketing of meat, milk, and other food products from cloned animals.
As if that weren’t enough to give you pause, the Federal agency, which says there is no evidence cloned food products are bad for […]
