[quote=Anonymous]Not too late! My oldest became a better eater at 4 and my younger is just now 4 and coming out of his picky eating.  Helped you make soup and only had one bite?  Congratulate him on having that bite and trying it!!  Get him to keep trying and don't be dissapointed if he doesn't like it. That puts pressure on them and that's where the battle starts.  We make a small side salad every night.  At first we didn't push it, it was there if they wanted. Then as they got older if we had something like bread on the table (they would happily fill up on bread alone) we would give them a slice and if they wanted more we might say "okay, have the peppers on your salad" and if they complained we would say you had some bread already, if you want more then you have to fill up with healthy food too.  Last night we had a busy night so we had frozen pizza and salad for dinner and I swear they both went for the salad first without our promoting

Stick to it. Give them choices but limit the choices. [/quote]
