DD won't eat fruit anymore!

[Lilli]

Hi,
My (2 yr old) DD used to be such a good little eater - now she's incredibly fussy - she won't eat fruit - when she was younger she'd eat everything. It's really hard to get her to eat just 1/2 a red apple a day - I have to do a whole song and dance and chase her around. I have tried all the yummy fruits - mango etc - she won't have a bar of it. Same goes for veggies except for raw cucumber n carrot.

Any suggestions on how to get her to eat more fruit?
Is this just a phase or permanent?

funnily enough she still poos 3 times a day!

From what I've read and been told 2years is when kids become fussy with their eating. I think its about toddlers exerting some control over their environment.

No suggestions except to keep offering fruit and hopefully the phase will pass.
