At O’Boy!
Organic, it is our goal to change a parents perception of the foods they feed
their children through education, interaction, and know how in a manner that is
fun and exciting for mommies, daddies, and children alike. Feeding your children healthy, tasty,
fresh, organic meals will help shape their tastes and nutritional values for
life!
When I
became pregnant with Jackson, my first child (I am now a proud mother of two
young, vibrant boys – 3 years old & 5 years old), I wanted to make sure he
began his life with healthy, organic foods free of pesticides and
preservatives. Eating this way would help support the natural progress of his
still developing little body without polluting it with chemicals that could be
harmful to that development. My initial research found that my options were limited
to buying over-processed jarred food or to make his food myself. My desire to
feed my baby properly along with my love for cooking made that decision a
no-brainer – I would make his food myself. To my pleasant surprise, I found the
process to be quite simple, efficient, and cost effective! I also found great
satisfaction watching him, and later my younger son Finnegan, enjoy exploring
these fresh new tastes knowing that he was eating the best ingredients I could
find and tasting the meal to its fullest as organic ingredients generally have
much more flavor than non-organic! Jackson took to it so well that, at his
first birthday party, he was more interested in eating the organic fruit that
decorated the cake and was not interested in the icing except to pick through
it to get at the organic cake below.
The
benefits of eating this way don’t just stop at the nutrition your youngster
will receive; as a former Montessori school teacher, I would cook with my
school children (as well as my own children at home) as it not only gets them
involved with what they are eating, but it also helps with the development of
fine motor skills, it boosts self confidence, and it helps create the
foundation for a healthy and nutritious lifestyle. This is why I created the Children’s
Cooking Parties – to create a fun learning experience for both the children and
their parents.
O’Boy!
Organic is an extension of my life’s work as a mother and a teacher. All of the
things that I will provide to you and your family are the same things I have
been providing to my family and school children for years. My objective is to
show parents and children that eating homemade organic food is easy and fun by
providing tips and recipes to keep the magic I have experienced alive in your
own homes as your child grows and grows.
Fondly,
