    Red face Started an evil exercise!!!

    Ooops!! I thought the great idea of letting DD watch The Wiggles on her mini DVD player while she eats was a short term solution. Now EVERY time we walk into the lounge she sees it, points, hyperventilates etc. until we put it on. Of course I could say no but she's really good at eating in front of it!!!! Anyway I will stop putting it on soon but just thought I'd warn you all!!!

    Hmm... we have Nick Jr on constantly during the day - it never goes off - but he doesn't watch it all the time - he will run off and play with his trucks or something. But its a great distraction when I am feeding DD too.

    And he eats in front of it too - and because he's not a great eater - if they have something on there that shows kids eating - or Curious George has a banana or Boots from Dora has a banana - he will come and ASK for a banana and then eat it.... so I don't mind the tv being on if it will get my kid to eat something!!!

    Mel, I am hoping that DD will let me feed #2 if I put playschool on with some food for her too. It wasn't my original plan but if it works I will be happy
