Kids can be picky eaters and I always try to find fun ways for them to enjoy their food.  Raspberries are our family favorite and they disappear in a matter of minutes, even if I buy multiple boxes.  Why do my kids like raspberries so much and yours will not try them? Maybe because we play a little game to eat them.

My son places washed raspberries on his fingers and calls them claws.

Then he asks me to count them, as I  count he eats one making my number no longer right.  This results in giggles and of course the more theatrical I make it the more he loves it.

This is a shy version, maybe because I did not want to scream into the camera or maybe because he was a wee bit camera shy.  Either way the box of raspberries was gone and his sister did not even get a chance to do her counting.
