If they don't eat what I serve I don't make another meal/snack for them. I try to always include something I know they like so they'll eat something but I don't stress over it (5 kids to feed lol).

I just spent a summer with two very picky 3 yr olds. One is still picky as she gets lots of fast food when she goes home and I serve water first to drink....at home she gets juice. I also don't stress when I see the little ones turn up their noses at their plates. When I sit down and with them and eat the same meal they usually start eat eating, even trying some of the new foods. We talk about what's on their plates etc and they'll at least do a bite, and sometimes find out they like it lol

I continually put it on their plates even if they say they don't like it. Yesterday we had guacamole along with refried beans, salsa and sour cream. My 11 yr old looked at the refried beans and was all 'ewwwwww!' and then after some encouragement tried them and her attitude changed lol She did try her guacamole and says she doesn't like it, which is fine. She's tried avocado in many different meals, and she still doesn't like, I'm happy she tried.

The struggle is real
