Great advise for first time momsThis is a great book to read before you start your food journey with your new baby。 There is great advise as a parent and as they get older there are recipes to follow。 As the book states， its easier to start earlier to make it a fun enjoyable experience for everyone than wait and try to unteach them what they have learn。

Tekquiree Spencer ，

Amazing book！ I believe every parent should read this book。 We don’t fully understand the development process of eating and this book explains it all。 If you want to raise an adventurous eater or are trying to help a picky eater or a child sensitive to food this book is for you。 Every parent should read this book before their child is 6 months old！ 5 stars！！！

Mike ，

Good book with lots of great advice。 Totally recommend to read or loss at least once！

Emily Harder ，

Vey helpful。 Could have used a few more details when starting feeding your child。 Overall， easy to read and interesting。

Krista ，

Good ideas。 Easy read。 Some good info and some I skimmed through， that made easy sense。 I wanted to read this to get fresh ideas on how to get my kids， especially my 23 month old， to eat more varied and healthier foods， and it helped。

Lauren ，

Some of the information was helpful in the book。 I took the meat and left the bone。

Cynthia Thomas ，

This helped me understand my kids' eating habits & not feel as guilty about their particular tastes。 It is packed with ideas- some i'll try， some a little off the wall in my opinion but hey why not give it a try！ This helped me understand my kids' eating habits & not feel as guilty about their particular tastes。 It is packed with ideas- some i'll try， some a little off the wall in my opinion but hey why not give it a try！ 。。。more

This isn't a "drop-in" kind of book。 I read the chapter on 4-6 year old and it wasn't all that informative。 It seemed like the strategies were meant to build on earlier chapters， so maybe the book will be more helpful if you start it with a younger child。 This isn't a "drop-in" kind of book。 I read the chapter on 4-6 year old and it wasn't all that informative。 It seemed like the strategies were meant to build on earlier chapters， so maybe the book will be more helpful if you start it with a younger child。 。。。more

This is a great book for parents of a picky eater。 Starting at young ages， we can encourage good feeding habits that encourage a healthy variety in a supportive， engaging environment。

Katie Martin Miller ，

Great guide for current Mamas who are just beginning food with their littles or for those that have a picky eater at home。 I love how the authors intertwine the physiological aspects with behavioral components。 They offer set advice and tips for how to help your child at a developmentally appropriate level， explore food。 I just ordered her veggies book and hope to pick up some more tips。

Pauline ，

Eh。 Some useful information， but not enough practical tips （e。g。， I was hoping for realistic suggestions/recipes） and lots of advice that seems to be targeted at people who can make this stuff basically their full-time job。 I appreciate the ideal the authors are talking about， but making things a bit more attainable would have been much preferred。

Chloe （Always Booked） ，

2。5 stars。 Didn’t really add anything to my knowledge base and definitely made a lot of ridiculous statements。 May be more valuable if your child has a swallowing or feeding issue。 Of all the feeding books this wasn’t one of the best。

Jaime ，

I read this because I have an extraordinarily picky 4 year old， but honestly not much of it stuck with me。 It was a lot about what happens in the specialist's office when they help children there， and nothing new for me at home that I hadn't already read about。Do yourself a favor and pick up Ellyn Satter's book instead。 I read this because I have an extraordinarily picky 4 year old， but honestly not much of it stuck with me。 It was a lot about what happens in the specialist's office when they help children there， and nothing new for me at home that I hadn't already read about。Do yourself a favor and pick up Ellyn Satter's book instead。 。。。more

I’m not sure who these little alien toddlers are who are enjoying homemade seaweed wraps， kale chips， and radish treats， but they are definitely not my kids， or even me for that matter。 Some of the toddler recipes and suggestions just seemed very unrealistic。 I also said in my head several times throughout this book， “ain’t nobody got time for that！” I found the very beginning and the very end useful。 The beginning discussed positioning baby in the chair and gave tips for starting out。 The endin I’m not sure who these little alien toddlers are who are enjoying homemade seaweed wraps， kale chips， and radish treats， but they are definitely not my kids， or even me for that matter。 Some of the toddler recipes and suggestions just seemed very unrealistic。 I also said in my head several times throughout this book， “ain’t nobody got time for that！” I found the very beginning and the very end useful。 The beginning discussed positioning baby in the chair and gave tips for starting out。 The ending discussed stories of different individual eating struggles that I found relatable。 However， I felt like the majority of the book presented different strategies and “tricks” that are supposed to turn your child into this amazing eater。 As a parent of two extremely picky eaters with sensory issues， I personally didn’t find much of this useful or realistic。 There are a few helpful tidbits scattered throughout， and I did enjoy the stories at the end。 I really would have liked to see more advice tailored to the extremely picky sensory eaters other than “get feeding therapy。” I also would have liked to see more tips and tricks that were in touch with time restrictions and busy schedules。 There are very few books like this on the market， so I’ll take any helpful morsel of advice I can get！ 。。。more

This book offers guidelines for helping children of all ages - from infants through elementary school - learn to eat a variety of healthful foods and to approach eating in a positive， adventurous manner。This sounds great - but in reality the book covers such a broad variety of topics that it's hard to imagine who the target audience is。 Some of the more interesting elements include:- The gross and fine motor skill development that facilitates chewing and swallowing in infants and toddlers， and t This book offers guidelines for helping children of all ages - from infants through elementary school - learn to eat a variety of healthful foods and to approach eating in a positive， adventurous manner。This sounds great - but in reality the book covers such a broad variety of topics that it's hard to imagine who the target audience is。 Some of the more interesting elements include:- The gross and fine motor skill development that facilitates chewing and swallowing in infants and toddlers， and the importance of proper eating equipment and positioning。- The problem pickiness in toddlers and older children， and ways to introduce new foods gently - Childhood eating pitfalls such as holidays and school lunches- Physiological and psychological issues related to eating， and how a feeding therapist can help。Unfortunately， the organization of the book - by age rather than by topic - forced the authors to repeat a lot of material， and there was no room left over for detailed discussion of tactics。 In addition， the chapters on babies and toddlers were focused on the physical developments during that time rather than how to begin developing positive habits。Overall I found the book interesting， but I didn't walk away feeling like I'd learned what I needed to on the topic。 。。。more

There is a such a huge market for what this book promises to be - a guide for parents who want their children to eat more than the usual junk and sugar that kids love。 I got some useful things from this book， like the fact that a child gets picky around 1 yr of age and that you should make sure they are comfortable in their high chair。 But unfortunately the rest was vague and common sense， eat together as a family and serve your children what you eat。 Duh。 That doesn't mean she will eat those fo There is a such a huge market for what this book promises to be - a guide for parents who want their children to eat more than the usual junk and sugar that kids love。 I got some useful things from this book， like the fact that a child gets picky around 1 yr of age and that you should make sure they are comfortable in their high chair。 But unfortunately the rest was vague and common sense， eat together as a family and serve your children what you eat。 Duh。 That doesn't mean she will eat those foods you put on her plate。 More importantly it doesn't mean she won't develop preferences for mostly sweets and yet randomly like broccoli， red hot potato chips， and greek dressing （to be licked directly off the lettuce）。 I think that I might write a book on guiding your child to adventurous eating that says， feed them what you eat， but only after you ensure that they are pretty much starving and willing to eat whatever is in front of them。 It will also say， don't feel like a bad parent if after everything your child still only eats goldfish。 。。。more

I’m having a hard time reviewing this book。 While it had some great information， there was something about the tone of the book that really annoyed me。 I also don’t think I am their target audience 。。。 though I’m not sure who that would be。 Overall， I wished I had picked this one up at the library or not at all rather than buying。 Disappointing first read of the year。

I have not finished this book yet because it has chapters based on your child's age and the children I am primarily reading it for are under two and the book covers up through school age。 I didn't get much from this book， honestly。 It talked about positioning of the child in the correct seat， the types of spoons that work the best， how to have fun playing with your food if they are resistant eaters， how letting them be messy encourages them to try new foods， how the author prefers straws over si I have not finished this book yet because it has chapters based on your child's age and the children I am primarily reading it for are under two and the book covers up through school age。 I didn't get much from this book， honestly。 It talked about positioning of the child in the correct seat， the types of spoons that work the best， how to have fun playing with your food if they are resistant eaters， how letting them be messy encourages them to try new foods， how the author prefers straws over sippy cups for language development and how to teach them， how motor skills tie in with eating， etc。 It was okay， but not really relevant to my situation over here。 I will probably continue reading later when the ages are appropriate， but just because I am nosey， not because I think I will actually learn too much。 Giving Raising a Healthy， Happy Eater a 2 out of 5， not because it wasn't relevant to me， but because I don't think many people will glean much info from this book。 。。。more

Ietrio ，

a book more about motor skills， than about "eaters"。 and based on many people all exhibiting their academic titles。 finally， this is a book about training a child like a circus dog。 sure， the text is far more compassionate as the training books of half a century ago， but there is not much diference。 the child is not trained to walk， but is trained to hold a cup so the parents will be so proud of their baby seal in front of all the audience。 a book more about motor skills， than about "eaters"。 and based on many people all exhibiting their academic titles。 finally， this is a book about training a child like a circus dog。 sure， the text is far more compassionate as the training books of half a century ago， but there is not much diference。 the child is not trained to walk， but is trained to hold a cup so the parents will be so proud of their baby seal in front of all the audience。 。。。more

My son has reached "that phase" （there's a phase for everyone） in which he has rejected the multitude of fruits， vegetables， protein sources， etc he used to gobble and has a limited list of foods he will eat。 （It's a bigger list by 1， if you count ketchup x_X）Anyways。 I was hoping this book would have some solid suggestions， and I do plan to try much of what the author recommends， but GOD is it going to be some tough going at first。 Like， really， really， REALLY TOUGH。 lol My son has reached "that phase" （there's a phase for everyone） in which he has rejected the multitude of fruits， vegetables， protein sources， etc he used to gobble and has a limited list of foods he will eat。 （It's a bigger list by 1， if you count ketchup x_X）Anyways。 I was hoping this book would have some solid suggestions， and I do plan to try much of what the author recommends， but GOD is it going to be some tough going at first。 Like， really， really， REALLY TOUGH。 lol 。。。more

Lots of good advice， but more tailored towards "problem eaters" than I initially realized， so wasn't as relevant for me as I'd hoped。 Lots of good advice， but more tailored towards "problem eaters" than I initially realized， so wasn't as relevant for me as I'd hoped。 。。。more
