Ask a Three-Year-Old: My Kid Will Only Eat Sweet Things!

by A Three-Year-Old

Dear Three-Year-Old,

My four-year-old only wants to eat sugary things. She won’t eat meat or beans or vegetables, only oatmeal, yogurt and fruit. What can I do to get her to try new things and eat healthier food? Please help!

Thank you,
Nicole

Dear Nicole,

Once upon a time there was a Mommy flea and a girl flea. The girl flea was named Foofa. Foofa loved to eat vanilla yogurt and play in the yard. One day Foofa got lost in the yard, and was calling, “Mommy! Mommmmy! Help, help!” But Mommy wasn’t there. She called: MOMMY! And then… Mommy came back! And Foofa flea was SO happy to see her Mommy flea again, and her nice beautiful yucky eyes with sausages in them.
