Fussy Eating

When a child or young person shows signs of fussy eating behaviours, this can be very challenging and you may be worried about the reduced variety of foods they are eating.  It can be a difficult experience but, with patience and perseverance, the vast majority of children can progress through this phase to enjoy a wide range of healthy foods.  There isn't one strategy that will work with all children and some approaches will be more useful to some families than others.  Therefore it is important to try a few different things and find what works for your family.
