Banana screen

My son HATES bananas. Everyone else in the family LOVES bananas. But the four year old goes bananas when he sees a banana. He does it all - shrieks, gag, chokes, kicks, screams, throws stuff. Crazy stuff. Especailly because he used to love them too. Now he can't stand the sight of them.

Solution: the banana screen. Masterfully crafted out of some cardboard I saved from the packaging of the IKEA play kitchen, it is now part of our daily breakfast routine. The inside is decorated with pictures of Spiderman and other things dear to a little boy's heart, mostly cut out of toy packaging, wrapping paper and birthday cards. The outside is a collage portrait of said little boy eating his banana-free breakfast.
