Cyndy, what to do with picky eaters

[Guest guest]

Hi Cyndy,

I was one of the worst eaters. My Aunt used to make all my favorite

foods creative. She would put things together on the plate like

celery and a spoonful of peanut butter and a few of my favorite

crakers along with my foods I didn't care for and I would end up

eating everything. She would also let me help her cook,like peeling

the vegetables, etc. That did help me. I don't believe in forcing

food down a childs throst, they usually end up disliking that food.

If she likes potatoes then try oven fries and see if she will eat

them with a veggie burger. She can put ketchup on both of those

since she loves ketchup.

Mya
