Childrens Gluten Free Tips
These are some of our best gluten free tips for children.
Birthday parties. When your child is invited to a birthday party it is important that they are able to join in the birthday meal and not appear to be different from the other children. Telephone the party host to in advance and ask what is going to be on the menu. If you ask early you will have a good chance of influencing the food selection to be gluten free. If there are going to be some standard children’s party fare items such as sausages or cakes make sure that you supply some similar gluten free items or, prepare some in advance which your child can take with them. In this way your child will be able to be a full member of the birthday team and the event will not cause them distress by highlighting any differences in theire eating habits versus the other children.
Sandwich boxes. Rather than being seen as different and disadvantaged make sure that your child appears to be the special, advantaged one whenever there is a picnic. Children are far more concerned with the packaging of foods and the Sandwich box they arrive in rather than the actual content of the food. Whilst, at times you might feel slightly restricted in what you can prepare as a sandwich for your child to take to a picnic there are no restrictions on the sandwich box they will take. Get the latest, trendy sandwich box and pack it full of gluten free items. Listen carefully at the picnic and you will hear the other children asking their parents why they can’t have the latest sandwich box rather than asking why can’t Little Johnny or Mary cannot eat gluten.
Gluten free snack packs. If your child is invited round to a neighbour or friend to play make sure you prepare a gluten free snack pack for them to take. This relieves the pressure from the host parent from wondering what they can prepare by way of a snack for your child and removes any barriers to setting the play date. You can also relax when your child is away from home knowing that, if they are hungry, they will be eating gluten free food rather than having a gluten accident.
