When your child is reluctant to try new foods bring them into the kitchen with a little creativity. Dress up is usually a favourite activity then pair it with cooking. It is important not to encourage eating the end result. A child will often take a few tastes as they are relaxed and having fun.…
Many toddlers enjoy spicy foods. We call them alerting or wake up foods. These flavours stimulate the taste buds which helps the child become more aware of the food. Don’t hesitate to offer the food you eat to your child. Tacos can be a great treat !
A baby’s first reaction to a new food is simply the recognition that it is different. The texture and taste might be a new experience. After 15 to 30 times tasting the new food will make it feel safe and predictable. Don’t give up!
