Mealtime

Mealtime-"Yummy-in-the-tummy time"-is an opportunity to teach young children two major personal and social skills: nutrition and table manners. This cheerful board book sets the stage to guide little ones toward healthy eating and positive mealtime routines-and to make time shared around the table pleasant for all. Simple but important mealtime routines come to life as the toddlers in this book remember to wash their hands, use a napkin and silverware, stay at the table, and eat healthy foods. Toddlers also learn the one big rule for mealtime: Always try one bite ("You just might like it!").

Parents and caregivers want toddlers to develop healthy eating habits and table manners. With Verdick''s keen ability to speak directly to little ones and Heinlen''s delightful, appealing illustrations, Mealtime offers the perfect tool to engage little ones in a happy, healthy time at the table.

Part of the award-winning Toddler Tools series, Mealtime can be shared before (or even during) the desired "time," or whenever toddlers need encouragement with social skills and daily routines and transitions.
