Hi all


Thank you for all your replies and encouragement.

TV programmes do not seem to help as she will know if I put unfamiliar food into her mouth.

I will try out some of the other suggested methods with her.

Thank you again....

Hi


My 4 year old girl eats very limited type of food i.e. porridge, rice, tofu, fish, beancurd, bread, papaya, apple, banana and some tibits e.g. potato chips, ice-cream.

She refuses to try other type of food like noodle, grapes, small pieces of meat, chicken wings etc.

Sometimes, we manage to put some into her mouth but when she realises that it is something which she is not familar with, she will split it out. Sometimes, she will vomit.

We will bring her to foodcourts, resturants and showing her that other children e.g. cousins are also eating the same food. But she shows no interest in the food at all and will cry if we ask her to try the food.

To improve her food intake, we have started putting her in an extended enrichment class in school which comes with lunch (hoping her teachers and friends can encourage her to eat). But her teachers feedback that she vomitted after she eats 2-3 spoonful of her lunch for the last few days. And she cried a lot and did not want to go to school as she didn’t want to have lunch in school.

We have just decided to withdraw her from the enrichment class so that she does not need to have lunch in school.

Can anyone suggest how I can help my girl improve her intake of different type of food?

Thanks & regards

Hi parents


Do you have good kindergarten or childcare centre in Chua Chu Kang which you can recommend?

The current one my girl attend is not good.

Thank you
