I love your "se...Wow Nikki, so much variation! I love your "send one to share with a friend" idea...a great way to spread the whole-food love. A few favourites in our house are veggie fritters (made with corn meal), pop-corn, cucumber and carrot sticks and boiled eggs. Now I'm off to check out 'The Lunchbox Revolution'.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07654416581850546836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6627109429370960702.post-66404076511046832622013-09-05T09:11:22.290+10:002013-09-05T09:11:22.290+10:00:) you are very welcome here everyday Sophie! I am...:) you are very welcome here everyday Sophie! I am happy my writing is resonating with you. Yes it is true, small children's tastes do change. Tips for fussy eaters? Hang in there! Stay cool, calm and collected (easier said than done sometimes I know) and don't waver from your wholefood loving ways. Keep presenting fruit, vegetables, wholegrains and protein in different forms (cheese, fish, eggs, meat preferably organic) and if your daughter doesn't eat it don't lose heart but don't pander either and offer endless substitutes that is where it all gets tricky. Try sticking with breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner - you decide what the meal is and your daughter decided how much she eats. It might sound a bit harsh but it sets up a good food foundation. also, children often need to be presented with a fruit or vegetable up to 15 times before they will eat. gosh this is turning into a post! ...I will write one on fussy eaters next week inspired by your comment. Also, seek out French Kids Eat Everything really great book with recipes too. Hope that helps! xNikki Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07061038678819861999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6627109429370960702.post-32420738124163606592013-09-04T22:15:41.389+10:002013-09-04T22:15:41.389+10:00Nikki I promise I'm not stalking you! Lol... B...Nikki I promise I'm not stalking you! Lol... But you're writing about everything I'm thinking about at the moment! My daughter will only be starting school next year and I'm already having a hard enough time with her lunchbox for preschool 2 days a week! She used to eat EVERYTHING but has become rather picky of late. I hear that it is normal for children's tastes to change but I'm hoping that it all settles down soon! I'm off to have a look at that book :)<br /><br />Sophie xo<br /><br />P.S. Any advice on fussy eaters?Modern Day Mummyinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05600426584576986011noreply@blogger.com
