When it comes to food, dinner, and basically all other meals, my little girl is a fuss pot. I remember when she was a little bubba, all the baby books told me to give her a variety of foods, and have her try everything before age one. I did it. I did what everyone at the time told me to do. I am now doing it again with my son, because, well I want him to try new things.
What no one told me is that it does not guarantee a good eater two years later. No guarantee at all.
She is fussy. She is a simple eater. And even the most simple of foods is a challenge at times. If she could, potatoes would be her staple in life, along with sausages and tomato sauce.
I have bought sandwich cutters to make fancy shapes, I have made faces on her plate, and potatoes are known to be ‘hair’. Being creative and imaginative with food seems to be the answer.
I am over at The Shake today giving some more fancy ideas on how to encourage a fussy eater to eat.
But tell me, do you have any ideas? This Mumma would love to know !
