I do give Jack a little dessert after lunch and after dinner, but not on days when I know he's had a bunch of sweet stuff already. (like yesterday's valentine's party at his school). But to answer your question, yes, I think it's fine to give them a bit of dessert every single night. (and it gives you a good excuse to remind them to brush their teeth with extra special care since they had dessert earlier).Jill Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15754057468272450305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-955485058316593732.post-48186054327545317012009-02-11T20:26:00.000-08:002009-02-11T20:26:00.000-08:00I didn't give my kids dessert, but I did make them...I didn't give my kids dessert, but I did make them "fruit snacks" every night before bed until just a few years ago - two different fruits and then a Reese's Peanut Butter cup or a Hershey's Kiss or something. On one of those divided plates (three different "areas" - one for each fruit and one for the candy). And it gets challenging in the winter to come up with different fruit combinations. But I'm glad I did it.drewkrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08855928899260003991noreply@blogger.com
