What a lively @FDP_Tweets Community Dinner @mghfc Raising Healthy Hearts in the beautiful #MGHRevereTeachingKitchen. Kids and parents chose their own salad fixings, made pictures that they ate. We played games, used conversation jars for a great shared meal @MassGeneralNews

Is it picky eating, or something more? We're diving into the red flags for ARFID and eating disorders on our latest podcast episode, with guest Dr. Evelyna Kambanis from @MassGenBrigham @MassGeneralNews #podcast #ARFID #pickyeating thefamilydinnerproject.org/blog/podcast-e…


This is a touching, beautiful 11-minute film that pushes back on ageism and uplifts long friendships among men. Full disclosure--made by my talented nephew Nate and features my handsome, fabulous brother-in-law, Bob. Nuthin' but net!

I made a short film about my 73-year-old dad’s pick-up basketball game because…ball is life. youtu.be/dw2NHiB_f2c?si…

Yes! Family dinners are still worth it!

During COVID lockdowns, more than 50% of families reported positive changes in family meals that they wanted to keep long-term. Two years after that research, are family meals still worth it, or are they too stressful to be meaningful? thefamilydinnerproject.org/newsletter/fam… #familydinner

One of the things I know is that parents need grace. We all miss some practices or games, and that’s ok. It can be centering and protective for our kids and teens to have a regular family meal together. A tip I learned from the research of @Home4DinnerBook. Eat together often!

With the new school year starting, parents should be kind to both their kids and themselves. Dr. Howard Liu talked with @TODAYshow about how the whole family can prepare for a smooth transition: on.today.com/3Kw4qvC



Enlightening study @hgse “We’ve been hyper-focused on teens, and we sort of pluck them out of their families. We talk a lot about how social media is what’s driving teen depression and anxiety, but we can’t look at teens in isolation,” Weissbourd says. bostonglobe.com/2023/07/14/lif…

The feeding relationship is the first crucial task of parenting. When feeding is warm & consistent, it creates a building block for later feelings of attachment. Read more from Anne Fishel, PhD, (@Home4DinnerBook) Director of @FDP_Tweets. spklr.io/6011YFth #IMHAW2023

Dinner in a Box is food with a helping of fun and conversation: @WellspringMulti: "We want families to have something to look forward to when they receive their food boxes. We think that TFDP resources will show that someone cares about how they are eating.”

Occasionally you get lucky and get a shot you really love. That happened today when I captured a magnificent Baltimore Oriole as it rose through an oak tree in Central Park. Some orioles will build nests and raise their young here! 🧡🖤🧡#birdcpp

Fascinating article about cultural preferences in taste, texture, and food words. Japanese language has 400 terms for food texture. Does more openness to foods lead to more words or v-v? For kids who fearful about new foods, asking them to use words to describe taste is helpful.

A sense of culinary adventure is shaped early at the family dinner table, through travel and by a sense of curiosity when cooking and dining. I love finding something new and interesting for my kids to try. Food is a language and window into culture! nytimes.com/2023/05/08/t-m…
