Safe sushi for kids

I have a child who loves to eat sushi – that’s right: Raw fish. I can’t even look at the stuff without getting queasy, but I tend to indulge her because seafood is such a healthful food, right?
Maybe not.
With all the talk about mercury and other nasty stuff lurking in our fish, I’m starting to wonder if I should continue to allow my daughter to eat sushi.
I guess other parents are wondering the same thing.
A group called KidSafe Seafood, which describes itself as “not-for-profit organization focused on ensuring a healthy ocean, and a healthy seafood supply, for the future” has come up with a list of “safe” sushi ideas for kids.
One is a standard California roll made with imitation crab meat — not a favorite in my family. The others are sushi -wanna bees: fruit, peanut butter, etc., dressed up to look like the real thing.
Take a look at the KidsSafe sushi party ideas here.
