My son came in this morning after having gone the snacks cabinet and eaten a whole package of graham crackers. He had one yesterday as a snack and apparently had been thinking of them since then. He had already eaten breakfast. Sound familiar? wow. The book I was (put it down for a bit to stop being angry) mentioned that kids are chubby earlier now because these tendencies are showing up earlier.
eek!
Do your kids do this too?
Snacks are evil! Haha. :) Ben discovered mints, albeit Altoids, which doesn't seem so bad, not too long ago, and now every time there is an inkling that there may be some mint somewhere (it's crazy how they can decipher packaging/containers), he obsesses over it. He'll ask me to go somewhere, like away from him, so he can go search for some in the pantry. It hasn't happened in awhile, but man, kids have such a craving for some sweets. I guess we all do.
