The very first thing that needs to be said in any article on getting kids to eat vegetables is that children do not naturally dislike vegetables. The idea that vegetables = yuck is one that tends to be picked up from television, books, friends and so forth - or even from your attitude. It does not come from anything in the child's tastebuds. If a child has been given vegetables (and junk food like chips and sweets have been kept to a minimum) from the start, then he/she is probably going to continue eating vegetables.Having said that, it is also important to have a little bit of leeway. Not all vegetables taste the same, and you may have some vegetables that they just don't like. Don't worry unduly. As long as the number of disliked vegetables remains minimal, then simply avoid these vegetables. In our household, these are parsnips and broad beans. Other, more luxurious, vegetables - mushrooms, artichokes and asparagus, for example - you can take the attitude of "well, if you don't like them, I won't waste them on you and I'll have yours. You never know - your child might feel that they're missing out on a treat and have a go.Here are a few things that have worked for me and my two...more
