Parenting Tip #10 Persistent with Food
5 CommentsChildren taste buds are developing. They may reject some food now but it doesn’t mean they will reject it forever. They need time to acquire some food. I would say be persistent in asking them to try out new food or vegetables.
Most children will not like to eat vegetables especially those with leaves. My children reject them at times but will eat them occasionally. Sometimes I will cut them up very small and mix it with their rice. If they don’t notice, it will go down to their tummy.
I remembered Emily doesn’t like broccoli. She will just take potato and carrots. Now she takes broccoli, cauliflower, potato and carrots. She loves ketchup too. Occasionally she will eat leafy vegetables. Similarly with Timothy. I think both of my children are fussy eaters.

Tim and Emily can shake hands with Destinee. She likes potatoes and carrots too. Whenever I ask her what soup should mommy boil, she’ll without hesitation say “ABC soup”. I’ve to find all kinds of excuses to ‘beg’ her to eat her veggie or meat. She likes certain leafy veggie and only takes fish. She’s one picky eater. Real headache.

Mine are fussy eaters too. Chopping vege into smaller pieces is a good idea. I make fruits and vege juice for them, at least better than not eating vege.
