Family Feud Food Video

We all want our children to get the best from life. Learning to eat a wide range of nutritious foods is one very important step in helping them to protect their health throughout their lives.

Food refusal and fussy eating is a common behaviour for toddlers but can drive parents to distraction.

The Community Nutrition Unit in partnership with the Dietitians Association of Australia, Tasmania Branch has developed a fun video and information booklet to help. The video and booklet covers five key messages around feeding our children.

  • Managing food refusal
  • Sharing food tasks
  • Understanding children ’s natural appetites
  • Avoiding negative food messages
  • Encouraging new foods

You can download the parent information booklet here. If you would like to view a copy of the video you can borrow it from the Community Nutrition Unit library (telephone 03 6222 7222) or you can purchase a copy from the Dietitians Association. You can download the order form here.
