What I've found with feeding my three year old is that presentation matters. Presentation is what takes a meal from a regular plate of food to a treat of yumminess. And it makes it fun. That's why I make a face out of raisins in Henry's oatmeal, make "ants on a log," or make baked chicken pieces that are perfectly finger sized for eating.
That's also why I purchased a mini watermelon that I saw in the market the other day.

Now, I never have problems feeding Henry fruit, but a special mini watermelon bowl turns a bowl of fruit into a special treat. I mean, come on, it's a watermelon bowl! How often do you eat from a cool watermelon bowl?
What fun presentations of food do you serve your kids?
