HOW TO GET CHILDREN TO EAT A HEALTHIER DIET
■ Explain the benefits of eating more healthily. This should be in terms that your children can understand and directly relate to, e.g. having more energy to play football; feeling more refreshed in the morning.
■ Put children in control of some of their food choices, e.g. allow them to choose which vegetables to eat; let them suggest a new meal.
■ Make some realistic goals (e.g. to eat two pieces of fruit a day; to try a new vegetable; to replace crisps with an apple or a handful of nuts).
■ Set up a reward system, e.g. award a star or sticker for each healthy eating behaviour. When, for example, 10 stars have been earned, choose a reward (preferably non-food, such as a new toy or a special trip) that
has been agreed upon in advance.
■ Increase the range of foods in your family’s repertoire – try new recipes and offer new snacks

Easy way to make children eat their meal
In reality, however, too many food choices—many of them unhealthy—make it impossible for kids to distinguish the good from the bad. It’s up to us as parents to make choices for them, at least until they
are able to figure things out for themselves. And it’s not realistic to simply disregard their food aversions, either. Forcing your kids to eat foods they hate only reinforces their distaste. That’s where a little loving deception comes in handy. Deceptively Delicious enables parents to give kids what they want and what they need at the same time. It acknowledges your kids’ genuine dislikes without being confined by them. It empowers you to exert some legitimate control over what your children eat, without inviting the usual fights. And most important, it’s a way to give your kids a head start toward eating what’s good for them so that they’ll grow up and eat better food throughout their lives.

How to make children like to eat vegetables
I had tried everything, and yet all my efforts to feed my family were being undermined by a powerful force: vegetables. Mealtimes were reduced to a constant pushing and pulling, with me forever begging my kids to eat their vegetables, and them protesting unhappily. Instead of laughing and having fun with my family, I was irritated and stressed as I labored to coerce them to eat food they found “disgusting.” I couldn’t take it anymore. And finally i found how to make them like to eat vegetables...
