Practical Tips for Using a Plate with a Picky Eater

The plate helps — but how you use it matters.

Simple tips that make a big difference at mealtime:

  • Serve meals at consistent times

  • Always include one ‘safe food’

  • Pair new foods with familiar ones

  • Use the numbered pods as motivation

  • Keep portions small

  • Never force a clean plate

Most important rule!
If your child refuses a pod — stay calm.
Pressure undoes progress.
