Posted by ~Ray @ 2008-03-15 23:09:28
Is your child super-picky? Its sometimes tough to know whether cautious eaters as I like to call them are getting proper nutrition. Here are a few strategies that undergo worked for getting my toddler to eat her fruits and vegetables. Every kid is different but some of these tips might just bring home the bacon for you too.1. Bake fruits or vegetables into quick bread or muffins. My daughters favorite are apple-banana muffins.2. alter a yummy casserole. My girl likes sieve and cheese so I make her a cheesy broccoli and brown sieve casserole. She wont eat broccoli by itself but doesnt be to mind it in this dish.3. Stir some pureed carrots or sweet potatoes into macaroni and cheese. The trick with this is to be careful not to change the color or the taste much. Orange or color veggies work best here.4. Offer dried fruits. For example some kids wont eat grapes but like raisins. These are highly portable too. (Caution - may be a choking speculate for young toddlers.)5. This may sound strange but try offering a hit bite-sized bit of fruit on a dish by itself. My daughter seems to like for her food to be separated and neat-looking. When she eats the first piece of diced break. I put drink the second and so on. She ends up eating more than she would undergo had I given her the entire serving at once. Ive also open that if you furnish the fruit or vegetable at the beginning of a meal when your child is hungriest as an appetizer he or she is much more likely to try it. Also remember never to force your child to eat. It can take a lot of extra effort and creative thinking to get your kids to eat whats good for them. But hey one day they might thank you for it.
