Health Tip: Getting Toddlers to Try New Foods

Getting toddlers to try new foods may seem like an uphill battle.

But experts say parents mustn’t give up. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics suggests:

The foods you eat may affect the taste of your breast milk. So if you breast-feed, eat a variety of foods.
For both you and your child, minimize salt and skip spicy flavors, such as hot sauce or cayenne pepper.
If your child doesn’t like a food at first, keep offering it. Your child may eventually grow to like it.
