IT’S HERE


​​Hi Reader,

I texted my brother on November 1st asking him what his kids want for Christmas and he was shocked I was already asking. I said listen, this is purely an act of self-preservation. Anything I can do early… I’m DOING IT. Because this year I’m determined to not be on the edge of a breakdown for the entire month of December.

Who’s with me??

So, I have to thank you. Thank you all for the gift recommendations you shared! I am so so excited to unveil our 2025 Holiday Gift Guide.

This is something I absolutely love to do, because my goal with Mama Knows Nutrition is always to help make your life just a little better – one tip, laugh or link at a time.

And I love the nostalgic feel of flipping through a catalog, so that’s what this gift guide is! A digital catalog that’s fun to flip through and see what you discover.

This year, in addition to pulling your top recs, I found lots of unique and fun gift ideas that you will truly be excited to give to those you love. And while the season is not about THINGS, it is about sharing love and joy, I know that sometimes gifts help us do exactly that.

So without further ado…check it out!

Hi Reader, This is the perfect time of year to be sneaking in some extra fiber because of all the holiday parties and running around you’re doing, so I’m glad so many of you asked me for more ideas! It can be as easy as making a few snack swaps, so here are some items to grab at the grocery store that will also give them some extra fiber. Breakfast is a great time to get it in too – even if they’re just having cereal (which my kids often do). You can easily get 5+ grams of fiber without...

Advent Calendar Collage

Hi Reader, I feel like as a dietitian I’ve been shouting about fiber from the mountaintops for the past 10 years, so I’m just a tad bit bitter that it’s just getting its time in the spotlight now. But, better late than never and all that jazz. 🤪 Even if your kid is having regular bowel movements, they still may need some more fiber in their diet. A GREAT goal is to serve a fruit or veggie 3 times a day, and whole grains, nuts, or beans, at least once a day. If you’re already getting that in,...

Hi Reader, Today I want to peer pressure you into trying something that I’m obsessed with and it’s all thanks to my mom. (Thanks mom!)

Usually lemon. And it was. The. Best. Thing. Ever. Somehow it always brought me comfort every single time. It was like the little thing to look forward to and enjoy amidst...
