Eat better, live healthier: ChopChop
I'm not going to bore you with facts and figures about childhood obesity in America, because we've all heard it before. What I will tell you is that there is little my kids enjoy more than receiving their own mail, and in particular, magazines addressed to them.

The intersection of these two issues--on the one hand, a real problem when it comes to kids and food, and on the other, kids loving their own mags--is where the new quarterly magazine ChopChop comes into play. Research shows that one of the best ways to broaden kids' palates and get them invested in making healthier eating choices is to educate and involve them in cooking. So that's what ChopChop is all about: kid-friendly recipes, healthier alternatives to unhealthy favorites, and great ideas for making cooking and eating a healthy family affair.

It's all backed by great minds and the latest research in nutrition, but you don't have to tell your kids. To them, it's their magazine, and projects for you to do together. The fact that they'll be getting healthier can be our little secret. -Mir
