I have 5 year old twins and they have limited appetite, how do I get them to eat!
Question:
I have 5 year old twins and they have limited appetite, how do I get them to eat a broader range of food?
All they eat is turkey dinosaurs, chicken nuggets, pizza fingers, fish fingers, chicken dippers and mini kievs. They don't even eat potato or chips unless from macdonalds or KFC

Don't you think I have tried all these ideas. I have tried the fruit and veg, I have tried the fresh meat (my husband is a butcher for goodness sake). My younger twin looks as if he could be a non red meat eater. Thanks for your advice but I think I will wait until they grow out of it

My boy was a pain too he used to be just sausages... its a long slow process but worth doing, I just introduced things a little at atime, plain cooked pasta with ketchup or mayo or whatever they prefer, boiled rice with peas or even beans mixed in. mash with sweet potatoe mashed in, just a spoon full with less nuggets or whatever at first. I gave 1 little florret of broccolli (trees) or cauliflower ( snowy trees) at first, both my kids prefer carrot uncooked, progress to meat cooked in a sauce or condensed soup in the slow cooker, my non meat eater likes this as the meat just melts. good luck though its a tough job
