In this latest podcast episode, Georgia and Jane tackle the age-old parental dilemma of what to send when your child's school requests you to "bring a plate." They share candid experiences about balancing healthy choices with social acceptance, from Georgia's initially untouched carrot cake to finding that sweet spot where nutrition meets kid-approval.Beyond just practical tips, they dive into fascinating insights about how food sharing shapes our children's development. They discuss a compelling Belgian study showing that kids who regularly share meals are more likely to develop altruistic behaviours in later life. They also explore how different cultures' approaches to communal eating can positively impact children's relationship with food.The episode offers clever solutions for every age group with an encouraging reminder that while teens might go through a phase of rejecting homemade options, many eventually circle back to appreciating healthy choices – sometimes even becoming health advocates themselves!Whether you're struggling with school party anxiety or simply looking for ways to nurture a healthy food culture in your family, this episode provides both practical wisdom and food for thought about the deeper significance of sharing meals with othersFor more expert support, check out our Raising Well Nourished Kids online programFor support creating nutritious lunchboxes simply, take a look at The Lunchbox Formula online programFollow on Instagram @wellnourishedkids
