What you will get

A week of simple meals and snacks for a picky toddler, pairing new foods with accepted favourites, with easy recipes, mealtime tips and a reminder to check anything with your paediatrician.

Common mistake

Allergies are skipped.

Fix: List every allergy or restriction, and check the plan yourself. Ask your paediatrician about new foods and choking risks for the age.

Also watch for

New foods are forced. Offer a small portion beside a safe favourite with no pressure, as the tip says. It can take many tries.
Recipes need too much time. Ask for “ten minutes or less” and batch-friendly ideas.

Try a variation: make a lunchbox list

Ask for a week of small, safe lunchbox ideas for nursery that match the foods your child accepts.
