Question: Are your kids more likely to eat a meal if it's mini?

I'm not exactly sure why, but kids seem to go gagga for meals that are bite-sized and that they can pick up with their fingers. Here is a round-up of kid-approved mini meals from CafeMom and beyond...

What is your family's favorite mini meal?

About the author Kim Conte

has shoes that make people stop her on the street and ask "Where did you get those?" but it doesn't work for taxi cabs as she was hit by one ... and lived to tell the tale. She has more freckles than Lohan but way less attitude. And she's a fierce cook with tons of recipes to share -- and wishes she could share some with Bourdain.

We don't have a mini meal but now I'm feeling motivated to try something.

my kids love "mini" and individual sized things! As a treat sometimes I make mini corn dogs using cocktail weenies.. they LOVE those. For my DD's 1st birthday we had a carnival and I did mini carnival foods.. they all seemed to like it. I think it brings it down to scale for them!
