How to make you child eat up
Making your child eat is always a problem. Even more so when it comes to vegetables. Ever seen a kid eating broccoli or zucchini without it being forced into his mouth? Kids refuse to eat broccoli, zucchini, spinach, green beans, peas or anything that is green. Every kid is a picky eater when it comes to eating greens and the way a parent deals with this is very important.
Make you child accustomed to green vegetables from the very beginning: The mistake most parents make is introducing green vegetables very late into their child’s diet. When a child is a couple of years old he is old and smart enough to know that greens do not look good and they refuse them. Greens should be made a part of a toddler’s diet so that a child is not averse to greens. A child should be introduced to a variety of food groups earlier on (like fruit and vegetables) so that you don’t face problems of refusal earlier.
Another thing that parents can do to make their child eat is to disguise green vegetables or other vegetables that a child dislikes in other forms of food. You could put vegetables in other dishes so that it is disguised and the child does not know about it and yet gets all the necessary nutrition. You could try things like spinach pancakes or asparagus in crepes so that later on a child realizes that vegetables could be yummy. Put vegetables in noodles and soup instead of just giving a child vegetables on their own. Try deserts with fruits such as apple slices or banana dipped in chocolate sauce. Slice up a lot of fruits and sprinkle them with a few blue berries or the like or pour some chocolate sauce over it.
