New Food Experiences
Trying new fruits and vegetables is a great way to get kids interested in the foods they eat and
can be a fun experience for the whole family. Try zucchini, blackberries, apricots or cherries. To
enhance your child’s food experience:
• Take kids to the grocery store and let them help choose fruits and vegetables.
• If you have a u-pick farm, garden or berry bush near by, pick the food together. Your
child will learn how different foods grow.
• Serve the new food when your child is hungry, they will be more likely to try it.
• Don’t force a child to taste the food. Keep the experience positive.
• Talk about the new food with your kids. Together describe the taste, smell, colour,
shape and the sound it makes when it is eaten.
Let your kids try new foods with friends. They will likely try it if they see others around them
eating it too.
