AVOID OVERWHELMING YOUR CHILD WITH TOO MANY CHANGES:

1. Keep mealtimes constant.  Use the same plates and utensils.  Eat at the same place and at the same time

2. Offer small serving a few (2-3) foods at one time….avoid offering too much food and too many choices.

3. Offer new foods along with foods your child already likes to eat.

Introduce foods in forms that are similar to foods you child already eats and make changes gradually.

For example, if your child eats crackers, but not sandwiches:

First, offer sandwiches made with crackers

Then, offer sandwiches made on toast

Finally, offer sandwiches made with bread.
