Also, you should not “blackmail” your children as we all know: “If you eat peas, you will get chocolate”. In this way, you are sending them the wrong message – that eating fruit and vegetable is bad but the award follows after they eat it.
If you have children older than 10 years, the best way to create an eating habit for them is keeping fruit and vegetable always “on hand”. That does not mean that the fridge should be full of carrots, apples, kiwi, peach and other fruit and vegetable, but you need to wash and clean them, then put them in a bowl and your child can eat whenever it feels hungry.
Keep in mind that most of the teenagers do not like to eat fruit and vegetable, because of the preventive affect on chronic diseases. If they are healthy, they are quite logical and normal and do not think much about diseases and eating fruit and vegetable.
