[quote=Anonymous]We don’t cook separate meals, but I try to be conscious of what our 4 year old will eat and won’t. She will generally eat other things on the table, but I know she won’t eat “mixed” things. I can either make them unmixed (sometimes a PITA), or offer her something else. We always offer the “real” meal or the alternative - eg. Frittata with spinach (mixed) or a poached egg. If she expresses disgust, I have no qualms about offering a “safe” option (plain yogurt, scrambled eggs, cereal, etc.). For us, it’s rare, and she always tries what we’re eating. She’s little still, and will eat most of what’s on the menu, or on the table. I trust her to guide us so she has healthy options. So far we haven’t gone astray., we always have crudités out at dinner, and she has never fought those. [/quote]
