SIMPLE DESSERTS ARE BEST
FOR CHILDREN

&
Simple desserts such as fresh or
stewed fruit or milk puddings are
| good for children. They are easy to
/ digest and furnish a share of the
days need for minerals and vita
mins.
Rich desserts that are too sweet
or that have too much fat can be
definitely harmful to child's diges-
tiOn appetite. Fat remains a long
time In the stomach and slows up
the digestion OF other foods. Con-
centrated sweets are irritating to the
digestive tract. Too much sugar also
spoils a chlld's taste for other flaw
ors.
Baked or boiled custards. corn
starch puddinga, juhket, and rice
pudding are examples Of milk pud-
dimga. For either baked or boiled
eustards. the recipe Is the same. Use
two eggs for each pint Of milk. two
level tablespoons OF sugar and one
teaspoon OF vanilla. Scald the milk
and sugar together. Add the scalded
milk to the we'll beaten eggs slowly
SO that the hot milk will not make
Jumps OF cooked egg, Then add the
vanilla.
For either baked or boiled Gus
tard a slow heat is necessary.
Boiled custardB are easiest made In
a double boiler. or In a saucepan
set in a larger saucepan Of water.
Cook the custard until it begins TO
thicken, then pour Il into the serv-
ing dishes and let Il cool in them.
For baked eustard set the baking
dish in a pan of water and bake In a
slow oven for several hours. The
baked custard is done when Il VIII
not stick to a knife. OvercOOking
will make Il curdle.
Gelatin desserts are good II fruit
is added and II they are served with |
milk.
EvapOrated milk may be chilled, !
whipped. and served with desserts /
II Is easier for children TO digest
than whipped cream because It is
much lower In fat.
Stewed prunes, apricOts and dried
peaches are all inexpensive. espe-
eially II purchased In bulk. Chill
dren may prefer b eat these dried
fruits uncoOked. They should be
washed before eating.
A mixed fruit cup Is a good way
to use leftover fruits. Fresh.
canned and dried fruit can be COM
bimed IN such a fruit cup.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
By CHARLOTTE SPENCER

TEACH YOUR CHILD GOOD
FOOD HABITS

Besides providing food for their
children many parents have the adj
ditiOnal problem Of getting the chill
dren % eat what is provided.
There are any number OF reasons
why healthy children have learned to
dislike some foods or TO fuss over
meals
Children normally dislike all new
foods. The way that they first learn
to like cod liver oil. orange and to-
matO juice, and strained vegetables
may affect the way that they will
receive, other foods later. Parents
should be patient in teaching chill
dren to like new and strange food.
New foods usually get better re-
ceptiOn .if they are started In very
small amounts. II the baby is still
being fed, the mother should place
| the new food on the back OF the
tongue where Il Is more difficult 10
spit IL out Babies sometimes refuse
ice cold orange juice or tomato
Juice, but Will like these juices at
room temperature.
Too much fat or too much candy
and sweet desserts will spoil a
child's appetite for less cOncentrat-
ed food. Regular times for eating
will increase his appetite. A child
" no is fed between meals because he
did not eat at meal time soon learns
that any time is the time to eat and
SO he loses the habit Of becoming
hungry for meals.
Many children do not eat what
their parents wish them to because
they know that they can become the
center Of attraction by refusing to
eat. The best way 10 deal with re-
fusals to cat seems 20 be 20 remove
the food quietly aud allow no more
food until the next meal Once a
child learns that his parents will
bribe him by candy or by a movie to
cat his food. he Is likely 20 cat only
when a reward Is offered. Many
children eat much better with other
children al a nursery school or in a
hospital than they do at home where
their parents fuss over them.
Parents who dislike certain foods
such as milk, vegetables or fruit
must expect that their. children will
copy these dislikes.
Food for children should be simply
prepared and sparingly seasoned. IT.
should be eaay for the child to feed
himself. Many children will eat raw
carrots from their hands while they
refuse 10 eat cooked CarrOtB from
plate,
SCaidinF 4 child a meala. whether
about his Eating OF anything else 10
likely 20 destroy his appetite. None
OF us digest food well II we are emo
tionAlly upset.
Regular meal hours, good food
we'll prepared and d calm happy
meal time will often do much to solve
the problem Of getting children TO
eat.
Parents who have difficulty feed
ing their children what Is good for
them may be Interested in reading

there IS probably no Otnef plaSt
