need help with ds(4) and his fussy eating.

He is so stubborn and won't try new foods at all. So I was wondering if anyone knows how to introduce new foods through play maybe ? Really am beginning to worry. The hv keeps saying its a stage and not to worry but its been going on for over a year. Any help ideas would be gratefully appreciated

Thank you will give some of those a try.

Let your DS help you with shopping - show him the foods, especially fresh foods. Let him smell them and talk about their shapes and talk about them. Also, let him help you prepare foods and talk about how clever he is to make the dinner with you.
Children are far more interested when they are involved, especially if they get praise for how clever they are for 'making' the dinner.
