A little strategy goes a long way to keep your child interested in eating right.

1. Serve a variety of foods. But remember that you may have to introduce new, unfamiliar dishes more than once.
2. Limit kids' portions of high-fat, high-calorie foods.
3. Set a good example with the foods you eat.
4. Consistently offer healthy meal/snack choices. In time, kids will be more likely to choose them.
