[quote=Anonymous]Yes, for my first we just didn't really do that but as you said it becomes a whole different ball game when the kids are older. My younger one has more of that I'm sure than older one did. We still don't do a ton of it at home, but out and about at birthday parties, wherever we go with the flow. And sometimes I will buy cheez its etc for home now, you don't want it to become tooo much of a forbidden fruit thing. We followed Ellyn Satter as well.

Both my kids are great eaters generally, but I will share to please know it isn't all in your control. You may do everything that Ellyn Satter and Kids eat in color (recommend following her on instagram if you don't already) recommend and your child may still be picky for a time! Most kids go through at least some phase where they are a little more selective. Even my very adventurous older one had a little time period between 3-4, now he eats most things and will try anything. But a lot of that is his personality!! Not because I did anything perfectly, it is honestly who he is to be adventurous and flexible in that way. He has other tough traits! Just not that one. My youngest is definitely more slow to warm with foods and that is his personality generally as well. Pickiness does have some genetic basis, so again your kid may go through it. you just do your best, try not to stress and it usually works out eventually[/quote]
