Simple but important mealtime routines come to life as the toddlers in this book remember to wash their hands, use a napkin and fork or spoon, stay at the table, and eat healthy foods. Toddlers also learn the one big rule for mealtime: Always try one bite (\"You just might like it \"). Parents and caregivers want toddlers to develop healthy eating habits and positive mealtime routines. This book helps them do so with Verdick's keen ability to speak directly to little ones and Heinlen's delightful, appealing illustrations. Includes tips for parents and caregivers. Part of the award-winning Toddler Tools series. \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eElizabeth Verdick is the author of more than thirty highly acclaimed books for children and teenagers, including books in the Toddler Tools board book series, the Best Behavior(TM) series for young children, and the Laugh \u0026amp; Learn(TM) series for preteens.
