Getting Kids to Eat Healthy with Honeybells

Honeybells are a parent’s secret weapon to get their kids to eat better. Every parent knows that it can be a nightmare to get kids to eat healthy. Kids are inundated with ads for sugary cereals and snacks and they want food that tastes good and don’t really care about the nutritional content. Almost every parent at some point has had a pitched battle with a child over eating fruit instead of candy. Honeybells are a super sweet citrus fruit snack that kids won’t know is healthy for them. They’ll eat Honeybells because they are sweet and delicious, but you will know that your kids are getting the vitamins and minerals they need as they snack.

Honeybells are the best citrus fruits for kids because they are very easy to peel and have no seeds. The small Honeybell fits into a child’s hand and the pebbly peel is easy for them to get a grip on. Once the peel is started kids have no problem peeling the fruit for themselves, which helps them feel independent. Since there are no seeds there is no worry about a small child chocking on seeds. Kids can enjoy a sweet Honeybell as a snack in the afternoon or as a sweet bedtime treat all by themselves. Honeybell gift baskets are great Valentine’s Day gifts for kids because they are a healthy alternative to traditional chocolate treats.

Giving your kids Honeybells as snacks will also help them develop healthy eating habits that will last until they get older. Some studies indicate that the eating patterns a child learns when he or she is little will be carried throughout that child’s whole life. So if you convince your child that a deliciously sweet Honeybell is a better snack than a high sugar and high calorie candy bar now your child will still prefer fruit to sweets when he or she grows up. Helping your child develop healthy eating habits now could be the key to keeping your child healthy as an adult.

Getting your kids to eat Honeybells will also help your children fight off the cold and flu germs that run rampant in schools and daycare centers throughout the winter. With the natural Vitamin C, Vitamin B, Calcium and other vitamins and minerals in Honeybells flu and colds don’t stand a chance against your child’s immune system. Your child can avoid winter illnesses and start to develop healthy eating habits just by eating one or two Honeybells per day.
