14.01.2022 Babies are naturally curious and happy to explore new foods while toddlers become wary of foods they are unfamiliar with. It is thought this evolved to protect toddlers as they became more mobile and able to be come across poisonous berries and plants. We can set up children for a lifetime of healthy eating by offering them a wide variety of nutritious food but don’t worry too much whether they actually eat them. Forcing them to eat doesn’t work and if anything may make them less likely to accept these foods in the future.
