It's common for children to be hesitant about new flavors or to suddenly reject foods out of no where. These changes in taste are perfectly normal and part of their development!
Remember, patience is key. Here are some strategies to encourage your little one:
It may take up to 15 times tasting a new flavor before your child starts to like it. This is a normal part of palate training.
Combine a new taste with something familiar. This can make the unfamiliar more acceptable.
Kiddo's tastes can change significantly, even every three months. If yours suddenly dislikes a favorite meal, involve them in meal selection. Feeling empowered by choosing what to eat can make a big difference.
