A. Make mealtimes a happy, regular and social family occasion. Sit together to eat with your toddler whenever you can.Show your toddler how much you enjoy eating the food you’ve prepared.Get your toddler involved in helping to prepare and cook family meals.Offer new foods when you and your toddler are relaxed and your toddler isn’t too tired or distracted by other things.Set a time limit of about 20 minutes for a meal. If your toddler hasn’t eaten the food, calmly take it away. Don’t offer an alternative snack or meal. Just offer regular drinks of water until the next snack or mealtime.Avoid bribing your toddler with treats just so they’ll eat some healthy food. This can make your toddler more interested in treats than healthy food and sends the message that eating healthy food is a chore.
