fussy toddler

my boy is the same, he's 26 months. we used to sit him in a high chair with a meal and a spoon. once his sister starting eating solids, we moved him from the highchair to a mini table and chairs. we put his fave food (pasta) or (bob the builder spaghetti on toast) on the table and let him take his time with it. try letting him choose what he would like to eat out of 2 possibilities... hope my advice helps

My brother in law is 30 months strange i know seein as though our baby is due in feb but he is like that but he now has his own mini picnic table that he eats at and eats better now, also if you give him a choice. Do you have any other children? sometimes the threat of another child eating their food is enough to make your child eat it and quickly! hope this helps
