Studies show that if a child is exposed
a ‘target food’ item 10-15 times, he or
she will eventually develop a
tolerance, if not a liking for it.

Exposure does not mean eating the ‘target’ food
…And Realize
![Page 9: Breaking Food Jags: How to get picky eaters to eat healthy foods?](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5563bd08d8b42a79028b56ea/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Exposure can
simply be a
few bites of
‘target’ food
on your
child’s plate
twice a day.

Don’t let low motivation
stop you from consistency
in exposure.

Prepare 3 days
of the ‘target’
food in advance.
Spend no more
than 20 minutes
doing so for
each cycle.

Exposure works because
children are afraid of
trying new foods.

By adding a small portion into a child’s snack or meal
everyday, you give them the opportunity to grow an
affinity for the ‘target’ food.

If you do this, you will be
able to get your child to
develop a lasting affinity
for certain foods.
