Today's episode is totally taking me back to him my oldest Teddy, he's six now, when he was a toddler.

And I'm wondering if you'll relate to this.

I remember I would make myself salads a lot for lunch and he'd just walk on over and want to

eat basically my entire salad.

Yet the second I put any of those foods on his plate, zero interest, Zero appeal. What's mine is his and what's

his is his, but he only really wants what's mine, I guess. I don't know. Toddlers are tricky,

but that's why we're here. I'm sharing tips on what to do when your toddler is always wanting

to eat off your plate and some tips on keeping them seated for more than six

seconds, as Matthew puts it, who called today's questions in.

I'm Casey Barnes, registered dietitian nutritionist. This is feeding toddlers made easy,

where we demystify your toddler's wacky and frustrating meal time behaviors and talk about how to get them good nutrition,

too.

Please follow the podcast if you find it helpful and you like hanging out like while you're

driving or walking, cleaning up dinner, whatever you're doing, I'm just glad you're here.

Even though it is the exact same thing, we just cut up in the smaller pieces for him.
