Mealtimes can be a strain in the family home. Everyone likes
the idea of the family dinner, but far too often such events are marred by
children needing to go the lavatory, spilling drinks, clanging cutlery,
refusing to eat vegetables, dropping food on the floor or just plain throwing a
tantrum.
One of the biggest complaints from mothers is that their
children are such picky eaters, as well as the sheer impossibility of trying to
get their kids to eat stuff that’s actually good for them. Fortunately there
are a few tips to try and get through the family dinner without one of the
adults losing their minds.
Try and get your child to have at least a taste of
everything they are offered. Appetites can change and children often need to
taste something several times to decide if they like it or not so just a taste
of a food they may not fancy the look of can be a good idea. Another good tip
is to feed your kids the kind of foods that you enjoy and consume. If you eat
healthy, flavorful foods then chances are your children will want to as well.
