This almost made me cry. This is 100% my daughter. I thought it was just something we were going through. You’re doing great mama.

By far this is my favorite what my toddler eats in a day video. Because it is realistic and simple. A lot of mothers can relate struggling with feed our children. Other KZreadrs do a lot of scratch baking and cooking and are very creative with meal ideas and that's not always realistic for everybody.

I'm right there with you, meal planning & meal times are a big source my anxiety too. I can't help but feel like a failure when my kiddos won't eat. At least I know I'm not alone. You're doing great, mama. 💗

The fact that you still do your best to make sure she has extra nutrients wherever you can get it I think is great! You’re doing a great job mama🤍

My child’s still young, but my niece was a very self assured child like Riley. When we let her help cook she was 100% more likely to try it.

Don’t feel bad, it’s super stressful when kids don’t eat... definitely helpful seeing others are struggling as well! X

You are doing a great job! I have a suggestion for exposing her to new foods. I know you are so busy getting her food ready before you start your own and probably don’t sit down to eat the same time they do. But if you do find yourself eating at the same time, put a little bit of what your eating on her plate. Don’t say anything about it. Just offer it and leave it alone. Your job is to offer the food, her job is to eat it. As long as you’re offering it, your job is done. Don’t spend time or energy pleading with her to eat it. All that to say, I have a 1yo who cries through every meal. So probably don’t listen to me. 🙈

I have the worst eater you can imagine he literally eats little to nothing and gets out of food he’d normally eat very easily when I try to give him something new he won’t even taste it! 😩 I’m so confused and frustrated as to how I can fix it he very rarely eats 3 times a day

I was fairly picky as a child and so was my mom. One thing my mom would do to make sure I didn’t end up as picky as her is when I would refuse to eat something, she would make me take one bite. After one bite, if I didn’t want it, I didn’t have to eat it. I wouldn’t get something else unless I tried one bite of the food and this allowed me to realize if I truly liked the food or not

Some things that help when feeding my toddlers are putting a small serving of a new item on a plate with other stuff they like, telling them they don't have to eat it, but it's there if they want to try it. Also asking them to feed a new food to me. They enjoy this and will often then try it as it's in their hand. Sometimes just getting them to touch it is a success. I think of it as "sprinkling" just a little at a time expose them to new foods. Never any pressure.

You’re doing everything that I’ve tried. You have two beautiful, healthy children, don’t stress, they’re great kids!

I love seeing little updates when Riley will allow more into her list of foods she will eat. You’re very creative and always give her the chance to try new things. Good job mama 👏🏻

I just finished reading the book "French Kids Eat Everything" by Karen Le Billon - the struggles that she goes through trying to feed her North American children were very relatable. The French have a very different approach to feeding children and it was a really interesting read!

First of all, kudos to you! Your doing an amazing job. Going the extra mile and shape cutting her food is a mom is trying her hardest and you shouldn’t feel discouraged. Coming from a mom of 3 boys who are all slightly picky eaters, I feel your struggle. That’s why I’m on here looking for food ideas for my 2 yr old lol. We’re in this together. And yes, they do grow out of their picky stage. My 8 yr who only ate certain colored foods is now always in the kitchen snooping lol. So hang there and keep doing what your doing :)

Dont stress too much. They are both very healthy loved kids so something is definitly working. Theyre very cute btw. I used to fill my 'grazer' up with buttery mash potato sometimes with veg in also. Youre doing great. Thanks kayla

My kiddo is really picky too and I know the struggle is real! If they only knew how much we cared about their development and nutrition haha. You’re amazing and doing a great job lady!!

You are doing such a great job only us moms know how much anxiety our kids not eating gives us! You are rocking this

Thank you Mama. My baby just turned 2 and oh my goodness. I am constantly watching videos. This video helps thank you. We will keep trying!!!

My word!!! I was watching you when I was pregnant then in the early days witj my little one in 2019. Since then I just don't have time to stop! I cannot believe how grown up Riley is. I remember how much she used to talk at 1 years old. Hope all is well. My little one is pulling the handbrake and we not big cookers so here to get some ideas. Thanks!

I think you’re doing a good job. My first two weren’t picky at all but my third is/was. She’s 2.5 now and a lot better but I totally get the struggle. I eat with the kids and mostly the same/similar to what they’re having and I think that helps a bit. I think you’re doing great offering and trying new forms of food. All you can do is your best ❤️

That’s crazy this is EXACTLY what my three year old eats everyday! Thank you for this! ❤️

The struggle is real. My one year old is not into it either. And I love food. But patience is key, it’s at her pace. Let her cook with you, let her touch food and explore it. She may not eat it but hopefully it’ll spark her curiosity. And then as she gets bigger she’ll start trying more. Just keep her involved, her palate will change. As long as she’s fed it’s good. Love you and your videos and your lovely family!

I know it is hard but you could serve her plate and tell her that is her food and if she doesn’t eat it is ok but she will not eat anything else and every time she asks for food tell her it is what she will get . It is hard but I known when a kid is really hungry it will eat whatever we serve them.

I was watching one of other mom on KZread and I liked her way to feed her child, she said that she said that she give her child food and if he is not eating eat, she takes it away, explaining to him that that was your lunch, next time we eat at dinner time. And she doesn’t give him anything to snack in between. Hunger is the best stimulator. Also read it from one child physiologist. I am trying to imply it to my child sometimes and it worked. And as others said my girl will go to my plate more often then hers, even if it is same. Go figure. 😀

You are certainly doing the best you can for her Kayla! One suggestion could be to make a social story for Riley about trying new foods, including real photos of her. Another is to continue to put a new food on her plate at least once a day, maybe at dinner when you and Joe and maybe Jackson are eating the new-to-Riley food, with the expectation that she won’t have to eat it. Yes, she may throw a fit for a while but if you are consistent she will learn. Another tip is to try to eat one meal together as a family every day. It will probably help Riley someday too if she can go to school or have play dates to see other kids her age eating a variety of foods.

My 4-year-old is extremely picky. Watching your video made me feel so much better about the way I piece his meals together. I know eventually he will try new foods, so I try not to stress about it too much. Thanks!

Yes please! I need the video for snack ideas!

Give her a reward for trying something you know she will love. Like a toy or an activity that you know she absolutely loves. That’s how I would get my daughter to try new things and we would also make it a big deal and cheer for her and clap for trying it and she liked the attention. Hope it works for you

Kayla, I'm going through something similar with my 1 year old. He has been in early intervention his entire life anyway, but they are starting to think that he has a sensory processing disorder. There are more than one type, but with children that are overstimulated can be extremely picky eaters. I have been following your channel for about a year and have watched all the way back to when Riley was a baby and honestly it may be something you should bring up to her pediatrician? Maybe get an evaluation with an OT or feeding specialist? Couldn't hurt. Reason I bring it up is because in more than one of your videos loud sounds also bother her. Before anyone says why am I bringing up diagnosis, I have a special education license and work with this type of stuff all the time.

I’m going through a similar thing with my 2 and a half year old son. He is smart like Riley , talks a ton you would never know there was a sensory issue until it comes to food and certain behaviors if you know what to look for. My background is Early Childhood Education so I knew the signs. I’m relieved in our case we are finally making progress. I think a lot of parents just assume behaviors like picky eating , fear of loud noises is normal many times it is and nothing to worry about. However, not always. It never hurts to get an evaluation just Incase.

My son has autism and holy heck mine is picky as it comes! So I get it and he does have therapists and the struggle is real.

I totally understand your concerns! But, I gotta give you props; I honestly think you're doing great! The fact that she loves so much fresh fruit, is willing to eat peas, and you're able sneak in veggies elsewhere is good. Also, she eats yogurt, drinks her milk, takes peanut butter/almond butter, and takes chicken occasionally is awesome as well! The only thing I can say that I have done with my kiddos is to just offer them different things for exposure and even if they don't seem interested or like it, I'll try again the next day or so to peak their interest and I don't sweat it if they're not interested. I know we Mama's try so hard to give our children the best, I think you're doing great, and I'm sure her food palette will expand as she grows. 🤗

Thanks for this video and keep it up Mama 💕 I know it’s tough, trust me I have 3 picky eaters but it does get better if you keep trying! For one of my kids, we had to do food therapy since he had texture issues and one of the methods we used to help him try foods was to use the senses in a chart (look at it, smell it, lick it, take a bite) and it helped quite a bit. Try not to hide the foods , let her be aware of what she’s eating and what it can do for her (chicken gives you muscles, carrots help your eyes, cheese makes your bones strong, etc) Veggies can be in a smoothie too (my 2 year old doesn’t like veggies either in whole form) And they don’t necessarily need to eat 3 whole meals a day etc - as long as she eats a balanced diet and is growing , you’re good 👍🏻 Good luck! Riley is doing great so let her try things at her own pace 💕 Oh and I used to be a picky eater too 🙈 and now I love food so don’t worry lol

Wow how are u dealing with it's very stressful????

Shredded carrots or zucchini (squeeze excess water after shredding) are other vegetables easy to sneak into baked goods. Another tip is to eat together, it really helps. And finally you could try giving her iPad and fruit once she finishes her veggies/ protein. This will be a little harder but it’s good for her. All the best mama!

Not only was I a picky child, but so is my little sister! My mum really lucked out because we had different dads so it definitely came from her side even though she eats everything. I grew out of it around 14-15 but my sister is not there yet... goodluck mama!

I was an incredibly picky eater as a child. In Europe, it was common to just have what you are given, and if you dont want it, maybe you will eat what you get at the next meal. So in daycare and 1st grade I was often picking at my food because I hated it, but that's all we got and that was my chance to eat. If I didnt want it, then I wasnt hungry enough. And if I was, then I ate what was in front of me, whether i liked it or not. I have now grown up to be the most adventurous foodie and struggle to keep weight off because I just love to cook and eat 😅 So there is hope for her yet!!

Wow, my 2 year old daughter is the exact same way and has very similar meals Lol I’m so glad I’m not the only one.

You're such a good mama! ❤️

The two most stressful parts of parenting I think are sleep and eating. My daughter just turned two. Her meals look incredibly similar to yours, and she almost never tries anything new. For my baby, I’ve found it’s all about timing. If she’s in a good mood, and is in a positive ‘go get ‘em’ state of mind, she is much more likely to try a bite of a new food. Otherwise it’s always a no. She still loves to use a bottle to go to sleep. I shameful topic, but I’m being honest. In desperation to get nutrition into her, I started putting things in her bottles. That’s how I introduced her to peanut butter. I put in plain yogurt, fruit, whatever I can find that can be blended down enough to go in a bottle. Then I cut the nipple of the bottle to be able to have it not get clogged. It’s been a good way to help me feel better, but not any help with her eating. Kids’ relationship to food has to be in real life scenarios. Not hidden in a bottle. But we all do what we gotta do! Good luck and I’m with ya!

This was so helpful for me. My son has been refusing EVERYTHING! It's been giving me anxiety and making me feel like a bad mama but this made me feel a lot better so THANK YOU!!!

I'm always in for a good bonus video! 😍🙌

You are doing a great job! Yes of course you can't force her to eat anything. I've noticed my 2 yr old likes cucumbers I think because they are easy to chew and mild in taste. We did start giving a small amount of ranch with them. She loves smoothies so I put a little spinach or zucchinis in them. Peas from the can are a good idea. Thanks!

It’s nice to know I’m not alone in this boat. My toddler will put ANYTHING and EVERYTHING in his mouth...but not food, he rather squeeze it, smash it, toss it. It’s a struggle! As much of a blessing that WFH has been, that’s also added more stress in trying to keep this little human alive and keep up with my job. I feel like there’s never any time to just 🧘‍♂️ breathe. Just taking it one day at a time, sometimes an hour at a time.

Have you tried cooking with her? I find if my son “helps” make the meal he’s more inclined to try it. But I struggle too. He’ll be 3 in April and is getting pickier every day which is new. He used to eat EVERYTHING

Something I heard was to get them involved in the cooking process- that way they are more excited to try as they have been involved preparing it? Hope that helps! 😘 xx

My son is 14 months and I started with blw, he did great at first but as soon as he hit a year he has been soooo picky !! Your doing your best ! Just keep trying !!

OMG I agree! Every morning I wake up with anxiety thinking what am I going to my daughter for lunch and sometimes dinner.

I think your doing a great job. I have a little one almost Jaxson age, 13 months so I love watching your videos. As for Riley,, Just keep on introducing her to new food. Have you tried mashpoatoes, refried beans, eggs, avocados? Good luck mama!

My daughter was the same way. She is 10 1/2 and just now trying new things. Lol there IS hope. My boys on the other hand will eat anything.

Don’t worry mama you are doing amazing!!! She will eventually eat everything!!! It’s okay !!

You are NOT alone. My toddler's palette is even more limited than Riley's. She is very picky and she has gluten, peanut and shell fish allergies. 🥴 The anxiety have over meals for her is unreal. But we make it through each day and she's happy. That's all I can ask right now. I'm about to go watch your next "toddler eat in a day video" to see if you saw any improvement in that one. Hang in there mama, and thank you so much for sharing this. ♥️

Maybe try plain greek yoghurt for breakfast as that has protein in it...its still yoghurt so maybe she wont mind... 😊good luck!

Have you tried the Once Upon A Farm pouches from Target? They are packed with nutrition and if my toddler really loves them.

My almost 2 year old boy is also SO picky! I never thought I’d have a picky kid but he is also incredibly strong willed and is not super open to new things with food, he just likes what he likes. Lately I’ve been doing popsicles that have fruit, spinach and extras like flax seeds and hemp seeds and hes loved that! Also some chocolate peanut butter muffins that have spinach in them cause you can’t taste it!

The struggle is real. My 3 year old is picky but my 6 year old is even worse. I try to give them both a chance to at least try what we are eating. Its time consuming making separate meals for them. I hope your daughters eating habits expand for you soon!

My 2 & a half year old now eats everything. When she was a baby she ate everything and then turned picky around 1 & a half all the way up to last month. She honestly surprised me she eats things she never ate before or when she sees me eating something now she asks for some of mine. So maybe it’s just something they grow out of but don’t worry mama as long as you’re trying that’s all that matters! 💗

Ahhh Thankyou so much for this, I’m currently going through the same issue and it’s so stressful, worrying that he’s not getting the nutrients he needs!

Don't worry too much! I was a skinny stick and of course my mom worried and heard all the comments from her mother in law as a kid (not toddler) that I wouldn't eat but I grew out of it. Now at 36 😂 I eat everything! Riley will grow out of it just like everything else. If you can somehow ease ur anxiety of it I'm sure she feels it and the anticipation it might help! You're lucky at least u don't have to think what new things to think of to cook! My one year old eats a lot of different things and it's a challenge still to think of new stuff! Enjoy her cuteness and give her a multivitamin and call it a day! 😂🤣😕

Riley is so good at eating her fruit. My lil man is soooooo picky. But at least he does try but just doesn’t like it... So I have to purée fruit and veges and hide it in my cooking. Thanks for sharing xx

My little 2 year old isn’t picky and I see your pain. Something I do is make similar dinners to my own just less seasoning. And we eat together and we always give thanks to our food, and I let her watch me eat how I eat. I am a picky eater myself but just to make my lil one eat I’ll do anything to make sure she isn’t picky. I hope the best of luck and cheering you on. Riley looks happy.

I hear you Kayla! Just thinking about what to feed my little ones gives me a headache. Thankfully, my 3.5yo isn't too bad with food but the older that she gets, the pickier she's getting for sure. Does she like potato? My daughter loves tuna and potato patties - easy to make and can be frozen too. She also loves egg so I tend to mince up different veggies and make an omelette.

I love this because i get so fixated on trying to feed every the SAME meal for dinner that i never thought to just give her the things that she will/does eat. smh thank you soo much for this!

I feel your struggle! My little one was worse than Riley. But I had some luck when she helped me prepare the food. I used to have her make "milkshakes" - so she saw it had all the things she liked in it - milk, peanut butter, banana and "milkshake mix" - protein powder. I used to sometimes sneak in spinach and they were green "milkshakes." My husband cooked grilled cheese fingers - just a grilled cheese sandwich cut into strips. I had a friend that made her kid, grilled cheese and peanut butter sandwiches, which sounds gross but is actually pretty good. I feel your pain, my daughter was even pickier than Riley - the only veggies she ate through fourth grade was Earths Best Summer Vegetables. She didn't care that it was baby food and welp, neither did I. You're doing greatt!!

Going through the same with my just turned 3 yo. It's tough. I'm trying to introduce new food to him in singles...like one piece along with his familiar food. He'll eventually try it after 10 attempts. It's tough and very energy consuming trying to keep the weight on your toddler before a check up haha.

You are doing a great job momma! Have you tried smoothies? My daughter was really picky! I made food for “myself” with veggies & then she started eating everything off my plate.. maybe you can try that? Hope that helps! Just remember you are doing your best & you are doing great! ♥️😌

I’m curious on what your going to do when you guys go to Disney?! Or even out to eat? My toddler eats everything so this is very interesting to me in you keep your sanity because I would have a break down. Keep up the hard work.

I’m new to your videos but since this video was last year, this is a suggestion for anyone and or you also is my son is 19 months old and he loves my moms spinach. She boils a bunch then drains it and puts a little pinch of salt and a little bit of sesame oil and mix it up!

You can try Cottage Cheese cups that have the fruit you can mix in. Maybe that'll help with the cheese. I tried that with Madelyn and she loved it!

Thank u i need to know how i prepar foods for baby

You are doing an amazing job! 👍🏻

Mama mia and i thought my kid was picky… you go mama! So creative!

Oh i felt you on every minute 🥺

Story of my life right here! Only way to get veggies in my 20 month old is to hide them. I’ll make a smoothie with frozen fruits vanilla almond milk and spinach also rice with very teeny tiny cut up veggies. It’s definitely hectic!

Yes my 3 year old is a picky eater and it's hard to get him to eat something new but thank you I'll try some of your meals. It's hard

Does Riley take smoothies at all? Since you said she loves fruit, would she take some spinach, for example, mixed into a fruit smoothie?

Is there any way you can do a video of what you feed both kids in a day

Kayla you are doing amazing 🙏🏽♥️ my son like tortitas de arroz I f u have leftover rice mix with egg and put it on the pan in little circles I add some cheese 🧀 if u like

Hey Kayla 👋 thanks for the video 😃! You’re doing great, as long as they are healthy it’s all good, it’s easier that way, what’s the worry?? If she wouldn’t be eating verges or fruits, that would be an issue. Does she try new foods at other people’s house? Thanks for the playlist composition, I will use it! Already tried the banana pancakes, complete win, totally easy.

Your intro made me emotional thank you!

So happy to know I’m not alone. It’s so hard getting my son to eat. One day he like something the next he doesn’t.

Do more meal ideas and what you guys eat in a day

Kayla maybe try other protein sources for Riley such as beans, seafood, turkey, liver, beef? Also try different cooking methods: air fry, baked, etc. Use different spices/herbs. I think also consistency is key. When its new to them they may shy away from it, but if you keep offering they sometimes will try it.

This is great! My almost 3 year old son is driving me crazy with being so picky!!! Not open to new stuff either so it’s a challenge! Going to try some of your ideas I think he may eat some of these!

I have a picky eater too! It’s hard and so stressful but I give him vitamins so that makes me feel a little better. This is going to sound bad but I just will not feed him if he does not want what I have given to him. Eventually he eats it, I leave the plate where he knows and can reach without me making him or forcing him, a couple of hours later I’ll check his plate and he has eaten some if not all. Also, when I take him outside to play he comes back and will eat anything I give him, I take him out a couple of times a day just so he can eat 🤦🏻‍♀️ but I mean it’s also good for him he has so much energy and I get to exercise too!

Looks like she's getting what she needs ❤️ ur doing a great job !! My 4 year old won't eat cheese either but she will eat soft cheese 🤷 makes no sense ... thanks for some good lunch ideas always struggle with lunch for my daughter 😊

No advice but just want you to know that as toddlers/kids my brother and I were as picky as Riley and now he eats most things and I'll eat everything. Eventually she will eat more, even if she's picky for now! My mom had a cookbook about sneaking vegetables into everything, our taco meat always had sneaky shredded carrots in it.

I have a picky little boy. We ended up putting him feeding therapy “ there is more to the story behind it” however, in Riley’s case it may be helpful to get an evaluation to see if she is a good candidate. It doesn’t mean something is wrong with her or she will be labeled her whole life. It will just give her the nudge to be more brave around the food. It has really helped our two and a half year old. We still do struggle but it’s gotten a lot better. Good luck!
