Step Three: Cook!

Those little prodigies on Master Chef Junior had to start somewhere! Check out my list of recipes specifically picked for cooking with toddlers.
Step Four: Eat!
When it’s time to eat and enjoy your toddler’s culinary masterpiece, you’ll observe something bordering on miraculous. Your fussy eater will actually eat their food. At this age, toddlers want nothing more than to assert their independence. Getting your fussy eater in the kitchen and allowing him or her to take some control over what is going into their bodies is one way to provide an opportunity to gain that sought after independence. It is also a great way to allow them to use their hands, flex their creativity, and further develop their motor skills. Here are six more reasons to cook with your fussy eater.
After you set your rules for safety, you can start small by allowing your toddler to have jobs like stirring or adding the seasonings. Most recipes can be adapted to allow your toddler to take part in one way or another. If your fussy eater enjoys cooking, the whole family can enjoy mealtime!
Sometimes cooking with your toddler isn’t always the most feasible option. Here are some other positive mealtime solutions for your fussy eaters.
