Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book for parents full of quirky and unusual activities to stimulate their children - ideas which come from lateral, left-field, out-of-the-box thinking. It is certainly not the type of activity book that shows you how to make a rabbit mask out of a paper plate! This book throws all the rules out of the window about how to entertain children and makes up new ones. It finds fun where there seems to be none in everyday activities and approaches life with a fresh attitude and a sense of adventure - and perhaps just a tiny hint of mischief! It gets our children to experience the world in new, unobvious ways instead of following the crowd all the way to the multiplex or the Fun farm with ride-on tractors that swallow pound coins. As the activities in the book cost nothing - or next to nothing - it also shows parents that when their children are groaning that they are bored, they don't have to chuck money at it. Instead they can create from scratch ways to engage their children which are more fulfilling and inspiring.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does your child decide they don't like a food before they've even tried it? Do they say 'Yuk' to foods they used to eat happily? Would they live off chips and ice-cream and never touch a vegetable again if given the chance? Are mealtimes driving you nuts? It's easy to think that children are naturally just fussy eaters.

Common habits like using pudding as a reward for eating the main course, or pestering them to eat their vegetables, actually encourage - not discourage - fussy eating! This little book tells you how to start again. It won't give you complicated child-friendly recipes or clever ways to sneak vegetables into meals - just easy-to-follow, easy-to-remember rules to help re-programme your child into a happy, healthy, adventurous eater.

Emily is a star' - Simon Rimmer 'The book I'd like to force into any mother's kitchen' - Prue Leith "A fab book with a plan." - Jane Devonshire, 2016 Masterchef UK winner 'Emily has managed to combine her mummy knowledge and passion for food to make a truly helpful and brilliant cookbook' - Priya Tew, RD, BSc (Hons), Msc Get Your Kids to Eat Anything is an achievable 'how to' for parents in the battle to overcome picky eating and 'make new the norm'. Emily Leary's unique 5-phase programme looks at the issue of 'fussy eating' in a holistic way that links imagination with food, and which situates parents alongside - not in opposition to - their children. You'll embark on a food discovery which will change the way you look at food and bring healthy variety into every meal for years to come. You will ease away from the same four-to-six staple meals most families fall back on, towards truly varied meal plans from day to day, week to week, to the point where introducing your whole family to new flavours, colours and textures is a breeze because new is the norm. Each phase includes a clear explanation of what you're going to learn and achieve, clear advice/commentary, two weeks of delicious tried and tested recipes, and hands-on activities to try out with your family, all of which will help bring that phase to life and help you and your family to progress forward. The 5-phase approach: Phase 1: Unfamiliar into the familiar. Introducing unfamiliar colour, flavour or texture into familiar favourites. Phase 2: Educate. Experimenting with food, and understanding where it comes from and why it's important. Phase 3: Fun. Putting the fun back into food and building enthusiasm for food variety. Phase 4: Into the unknown. Discovering new ingredients and flavour combinations. Phase 5: Cementing variety. Learning techniques to keep your family meals varied long-term.
