I'm a little worried about my child's health. What are some good ways to make sure she's eating right?

1. Start by talking to your child and asking them what they want for breakfast.
2. Make sure you have healthy options available at home, like whole grain toast with peanut butter or oatmeal with fruit.
3. Try to include more vegetables in her diet by making veggie smoothies, adding diced bell peppers to scrambled eggs, or serving raw veggies with dip.
4. Encourage your child to try new foods and experiment with different recipes.
5. Have regular family meals together so that your child can learn how to properly chew and enjoy their food.
6. If your child is picky, offer small portions of the healthier option first and then gradually increase the portion size until they're comfortable trying it.
7. Offer nutritious snacks throughout the day, such as yogurt with fruit, nuts and seeds, or air-popped popcorn.
8. Finally, don't forget to praise your child for eating healthy foods!
