I have been quite lucky to date and I really encourage like you do, feeling, tasting and licking. They know it is ok to spit it out if they don\u2019t like it (as long as it is in the toilet, bin or napkin) and that gives them confidence. I try to an adopt a take it, or leave it approach. This is what is on offer, I will encourage you to eat it, but not force you. There are no alternatives. I think children realise quickly that food is the one place they can assert their authority and independence. Let them have it for a bit, they will not starve and soon realise it might be better just to check they don\u2019t like it. Obviously you learn quickly when a taste is genuine, for example BB can\u2019t stand bananas.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Thanks for sharing in Family Frolics.\u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\":)\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/s0.wp.com\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/icon_smile.gif?w=1200\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/>&#8220;<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>&#8220;Newspaper fight!
