Registered Nutritionist
Fennies are proud to be accredited by the Early Years Nutrition Partnership (EYNP) for our menus and contribution to supporting good nutrition in the early years. As part of our subscription, we are delighted to bring you regular nutrition updates and evidence-based articles written by our Registered Nutrition Professionals from EYNP, Janet Aylott, and Catherine Lippe. This months’ topic: How to encourage your child to try new foods.
Having a varied and well-balanced diet is the ultimate goal for every child, but navigating the road to get there can be a little bumpy! Encouraging children to try new foods can seem like an uphill battle.
Most children will have a few ‘go-to’ foods that they love (in fact many adults do too!) but limiting the foods that we eat means that we limit the nutrients, the tastes, and the textures that we experience. As children grow, they need a wide range of different nutrients to develop to their full potential. Enjoying a variety of different foods is also a great social skill which helps children to spend time with their friends, at nursery or when they are older, at school, without the worry.
