Over the next two weeks I am working with a great group of bloggers on a 10 Days of Gluten Free series. Over the course of two weeks we will each be covering a wide range of subjects from travel, resources, baking, getting started, and more. I will be covering kids and gluten free.
I am really looking forward to this series and all the information that will be shared. I hope you are able to learn a lot of new tips and ideas for living the gluten free life and that you find some new sites and sources for information.
Today’s tip for Gluten Free and Kids is a quick one and it is simply to listen to your kids. Listen to how they feel. Listen to their instincts and yours.
Take the time to listen to the difficulties and the ups and downs.
Gluten free living can be challenging especially for kids, be there to give them the support they need to live a gluten free life.

Great tip Lynn! Kids definitely need to be heard and feel like they are being understood! Such an important part of being gluten free. (not a drawing entry, just a comment!) love being a part of this series with you!
Katherine
Looking forward to this series- we just switched over to gluten free a little over a week ago, so we are getting adjusted. I have used some Bob’s Red Mill products and really like them- they also seem to be the least expensive replacements in my area. 🙂

Thanks for posting this blog hop. I need all the resources I can gather. I was diagnosed with celiac disease this past March but haven’t gotten my symptoms under control even though I am following a strict gluten free diet. I have also temporarily given up dairy and consume almost no soy — aside from gluten free soy sauce. Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for entering me in the giveaway.

My kid is 20 but still at home and not taking the new gluten-free household thing well at all! Maybe I will pick up some tips here, even though he is technically not a kid anymore. He is still acting like one!
