Try-It Food Chart for Picky Eaters + 15 Tries Tracker (PDF)

Picky eater? Help your toddler get brave with new foods, one little step at a time. No bribes, no counting bites, no battles.

This printable Try-It Food Chart breaks trying a new food into 5 easy steps your toddler can follow with picture icons, even before they can read: LOOK, TOUCH, SMELL, LICK, TASTE. Every step counts. Stopping at "Look" is a win, and "Not yet" is a real answer.

Made by a registered nurse and mom who's lived through the beige food era.
