It can be such a pain to get children to eat their vegetables. Children need a healthy and balanced diet. Eating a variety of quality food ensures they are provided all the nutrition they need.
The challenge is that many children do not like to eat vegetables. This can be conquered by creative cooking. Parents can change the shape of the vegetables and make interesting patterns. They can also give their children delicious vegetable juice and dumplings. Accompanying vegetables with meat can make eating their plant portions more appealing. Inventive meals will gradually enhance a child’s appetite.
One day I received a really intriguing tip from a fellow mom about how to encourage children to eat their vegetables. She told me, “I never give my children snacks before a meal. Usually when they feel hungry and are waiting for me to serve them food, I give them some vegetables. They may not like it at first, but their hunger will compel them to eat, and eventually they become accustomed to it.”
Creative solutions to a picky eater, whether through imaginative dishes or cunning deception, can curb an appetite. As parents it is our responsibility to ensure our children are eating healthy, diverse diets. With the right approach, eating vegetables can be made fun!
