How Do You Get Your Kids to Eat Healthy?

Join the discussion with our Moms Council moms.

When you're juggling taking one kid to basketball practice and the other to ballet, with only 10 minutes to spare, eating healthy may seem like an impossible feat. But even when you do have time to cook a nice healthy meal, the veggies always seem to take a backseat when it comes to what your kids want to eat for dinner.

For this week's Moms Talk Q&A, we want to know what tactics you have used to get your kids to eat healthy.
