[Improving social skills]
In order to help my boys learn how to share, particularly when it comes to table manners, I sometimes provide a share plate. The aim is to only take one piece at a time and to still take the time to enjoy and be thankful for our food.
To help them along, I don’t provide highly desired items on the plate as this only encourages grabbing!
Here is our apple with tahini…
Love this! I put out a shared plate of salad vegetables at dinner the other night and it was a hit. My two girls wanted to make sure they got their fair share and gobbled up the carrots, celery, cucumber etc before they even touched the rest of their meal.
