Loveuloveyourchild, especially when they may only want to eat chicken nuggets and French fries and you are not supposed to force kids to ‘clean their plate’ or make meals a power struggle. This short report is aimed at preventing food fads from a young age, it makes life so much easier!

It can help to start early, offering your toddler lots of different types of foods and letting them see you eat and enjoy a variety of foods as you all sit at the table as a family, especially fruit and vegetables. Although infants often get a lot of fruit and vegetable baby foods, once they start eating table food, what you eat is going to be a big influence on what your children like to eat. If you rarely serve vegetables with meals or eat fruit, don’t be surprised if your children develop the same tastes.

What if you haven’t taught your toddler to eat a variety of fruit and veg, is it too late? No. It's not too late to get your older children to eat more fruit and veg, but rather that they won’t do it on their own and that you are going to have to work at it. This small booklet is aimed and helping you do just that.
