My own parents never forced me to eat anything I didn’t like, and I think meal times were always a happy place because of that. My sister was extremely fussy and I remember my mum being livid when she found out a childminder had forced her (at the age of 2) to sit at the table for over an hour in front of egg sandwiches because she wouldn’t touch them.

For ages F said she hated lasagne but after happily eating it at school it’s now one of her favourite dishes!

Love the idea of a food play date 🙂

My second has been a little hesitant, and her approach to trying new foods is so different to her older sister. I found school lunches were when we made the real break through (so a little later than being a toddler) but thank goodness that was when she really became less hesitant.

I think it encourages a much healthier relationship with food that way too.
