We tried every trick in the book with DS.. nothing would make him eat them as a toddler.. yet as a baby i have videos of him eating a plate of corn, peas and carrots. But in saying that, we have now found a light at the end of the tunnel. We told him once he turned 4 he had to starts eating a vegetable with his dinner or he wouldnt grow strong. Well it worked. He now eats broccoli. He wont touch anything else but at least its something. We started out with a tiny piece and each night that piece grew to the point he asked me for 2 pieces, which he has every night. Only catch is, he has to dip it in sauce.. which is fine by us.
But as for a toddler, i would just keep giving it to him every night. Make a game out of it, see who can eat their vegies first? let him dip it in a tiny bit of sauce? But i wouldnt put too much pressure on him to eat them though otherwise he will get scared of it. And in the mean time, maybe give him some multivitamins so you know, if hes not eating the vegies, at least hes getting his vitamins.
