What if children don't like fruit? Parenting tips: These skills make children fall in love with fruit.
1 There are three reasons why children don't like to eat fruits and vegetables.

1. Normal intake of fruits and vegetables can provide some children with enough nutrition without supplementation. This is "the body does not need it";

2. Some children have a bad impression on the taste of one or more fruits and vegetables, so there will be a situation of "no need to remember";

3. Some children hate the taste of certain fruits and vegetables, which is "physiologically unnecessary".

We can't be sure why children don't need this kind of vegetables and fruits, so we should keep trying, change methods and let children eat them.

As long as it is not "physically unnecessary", both parents can find ways to "cultivate" their children's good habit of eating fruits and vegetables.

How can we make them fall in love with fruits and vegetables? There is always fruit at home. When taking the children out, you can prepare some vegetables or fruits.

Every meal should have vegetables and fruits. For example, you can add fruit to cereal for breakfast, add a fruit or vegetable salad for lunch, take fruits or vegetables as extracurricular snacks, and add one or two vegetables for dinner.

The types of vegetables and fruits should be diversified, and the cooking methods should be diversified to prevent children from starting to dislike vegetables and fruits because they are tired of eating a certain kind of vegetables or fruits.

Letting children choose their own vegetables and fruits helps to establish their favorite food list.

Increase the interest of food, such as drawing smiling faces on sandwiches and posing cute shapes with vegetables and fruits.

It is best not to give children finished fruit juice. If you must drink it, make sure it is 100% pure fruit juice, not fruit juice.

Lead by example, eat more vegetables and fruits yourself, and order more vegetables and low-fat foods when eating out.

Setting daily fruit and vegetable goals for family members and giving appropriate rewards to achieve the goals can increase children's enthusiasm for eating fruits and vegetables.

When buying vegetables, buy more fruits and vegetables. On the one hand, avoid buying high-calorie foods, such as potato chips, biscuits and sweets.

On the other hand, take children to the candy and snack area less, because if children don't see these foods, they won't want to buy them.

Try to let children eat with their families. Studies show that when children eat with their families, they will eat more vegetables and fruits and eat less fried food and sugary drinks.
