First it’s the madness of Christmas and then, just when you think it’s time to relax, the ‘Back to School’ rush knocks you right off your feet.
In-between purchasing uniforms and stationary, you also need to re-stock the pantry, which after weeks of holidays and leftovers, is in dire need of suitable food for breakfast, lunch boxes and afterschool snacking.
Once the pantry is re-stocked though, who’s to say that your children will actually cooperate with eating the nutritious food purchased?
