[quote=Anonymous]Per Kids Eat in Color serving a meal that has some components the kids will eat is fine. There had to be enough to they can fill up on it. No coercion as that leads to a lot fo stress for everyone. You're bot supposed to praise either but i break that rule with my kids as they respond well to positive attention. My 6 year old is not picky, likes veg and will try many things. The 3 year old is picky, not yet extremely, i specifically never bought boxed things for her to not have her fixate on any one brand just in case. We always have bread and butter or cream cheese and apples at the table. And if thats all she eats its fine. If she grabs a tomato and touches/smells/licks it, great. Sometimes we get a meal she loves and she will eat everything (pizza, noodles, meatballs, breakfast foods) and most of the time i cater a little to her and serve her components. We have rice bowls a lot so she only had the rice, bagel seasoning and cheese. The rest of us have the grilled and pickled vegetables, diced chicken etc. on ours. Interestingly I get reports from preschool (which provides hot linch and snacks) that she eats foods there she never eats at home like soup and carrots. Peer pressure works on her i suppose. [/quote]
