1. Breastfeeding
2. Positive parenting
3. Keep trying
4. Variety
5. Five a Day
1. Introduce the traditional favorites first (applesauce, bananas, carrots, sweet potatoes)
2. Later, offer new flavors along with familiar favorites. It may take several tries before your baby learns to like some fruits and vegetables.
3. Respect your child's personal preferences. No one fruit or vegetable is going to make or break your child's diet.
4. Convenience is key. Baby food is easy, safe, portable, nutritious and comes in appropriate portion sizes.
5. Let the colors of the rainbow be your guide each day. The more variety, the better!
6. Activity: the other side of the healthy habits equation
