About Maggie

I am a nurse and a mother of 2. I am also the founder of Nourish Interactive. I am very concerned about the health and well being of our children. I started the Nourishing Thoughts Blog so that I could help parents keep up on the latest trends in children's nutrition and exercise.

I know that much like reading and writing is the foundation for learning, nutrition is the foundation for healthy children. But with so many new studies, products and trends constantly being reported it is hard to keep up. I just want to make it a little easier for parents by doing some of the legwork and providing you with up to date information.

Nourishing Thoughts listed in Top 100 Pediatric Health Blogs

Friday, November 7th, 2008

Nourishing Thoughts Blog has been listed in the Top 100 Pediatric Health Blogs by Nursing Assistant Central. I write this blog because I want to make a difference in our quest to create a healthier child.  I believe whole heartedly that we can all work together to make a difference in the future of our children.  And we can do it one step at a time, and we can do it in a fun way.

Parents are actually the biggest “Advertisement” for children.  What do I mean? What you say, what you do, is more powerful than the food company’s advertisement.  So we parents have the power, the influence to make the difference in how a child views food, nutrition, health, activity…..we can make it fun, something that they like to experience….or not. 

But back to the Top Pediatric Blog listing.  I also found their list to be quite comprehensive with blogs broken out into categories.  I wanted to share this resource with you.  Their categories include:

  • Health and Wellness
  • Child Development and Mental Health
  • Specific Childhood Illnesses and Disorders
  • Autism Spectrum Disorders
  • Nutrition  (we are listed under this category – # 48!)
  • Food Allergies
  • Vaccines
  • Dental Health
  • Childbirth and Breastfeeding
  •  Podcasts
  • For or By Professionals
