New trick for getting my picky kiddo to eat her veggies:

I put all the music on my phone on random and whenever she wants me to skip a song she doesn't like she has to eat some of her veggies first.

@threeduck @dadsplain That is still kind of my instinct, but my daughter's pickiness got to the point that it affected her health. Fortunately, we've made enough progress over the past few years that that problem is behind us. Now we're just working on variety. We're not forcing her to clean her plate. She just needs some encouragement and light pressure to figure out how to enjoy more than one type of vegetable.
