Low Tox Life

399. Toddler to Table: How to set your little people up for life through connection and food experiences.


Listen Later

Did you feel like kids connected with kids and adults with adults regarding food? Separate times, separate tables, dumbed-down ‘fun’ food? 


This week we are talking food and little people - Toddlers to be specific given the wonderful Luka from Book to Food has a new book available for pre-order and soon for real “Toddler to Table”. 


It is a stunner of a book but what I love most about the book and our conversation, as someone who spent years educating on family food in the earlier years of Low Tox Life is that we talked about: 

  • how people’s backgrounds and childhoods affect our views on food
  • Our own experiences of shift work - two reformed Up-And-Go breakfast gals - true story and how conveniences needed re-teaching/re-defining.
  • Luka explains why she’ll never do a day on a plate and why it’s easier for her to put a big focus on food in her life - LOVE THAT THIS CAME UP - Ever felt guilty following homemaker accounts, food accounts or zero-waste peeps? Remember they do it FULL TIME.
  • Agency and choice within boundaries and a family food setting
  • Food refusal - when to work on it as an ‘issue’ vs not sweating the small stuff.
  • The Family Table and coming together and the impact it has.

And so much more - enjoy! And Toddler to Table is available for Preorder if you or someone in your life has a toddler - it is a STUNNER and about so much more than just recipes. Bravo @boobtofood
