Food challenge for 4 year old. Bricking it. Any advice?

That's it really! Our first food challenge next week - baked egg. DD wants to help cook it, bless her, so we'll have a go at involving her with that somehow, without her touching it or eating it [hconfused].

But she's quite anxious (understandably) around food. Won't eat the pre-school snacks etc. So there's a good chance we'll get to hospital and she'll refuse point blank to eat the stuff. Any tips? Games I can make it into? Rewards a good idea or no?

I'm also bricking it as well. If she's ill, then its my fault, she'll hate me, and she'll never want to do another challenge again. Gargh, I hate this, hate it, hate it. Sigh.

I've been following this thread, although I couldn't contribute anything useful. Glad to hear all went well with your DD, onwards and upwards!
