About this listen

In this mini episode I outline;

  • Why kids ask if a food is 'good' for them.
  • What do we mean by 'good'?
  • Why answering 'yes' or 'no' to this question can be problematic.
  • How we can respond instead without labelling food.
  • Examples of scripts to use when talking about different foods.
  • Why it's important to model neutral language about food around our children.
