Did you know that April 4th is National Picky Eaters Day? As a former picky eater AND the mom of a picky eater, I understand the struggle from both sides! Getting choosy foodies of any age to try a new ingredient can be a challenge, but it can help to make the experience an adventure!

One great way to start is with a book that builds excitement for mealtime, like these two delightfully silly tales. What are some of your favorite ways to help picky eaters find their new favorite snack?

Hot Food: Nice! by Michael Rosen, illus. by Neal Layton
