Parents will be well acquainted with this particular conundrum: how to make sure a picky toddler gets the nourishment and nutrition that they need. It can be an almost impossible task at times, with a particular food being an all-time favorite one day, but end up hurled onto the floor in disgust the next.
What to do? All kinds of sneaky tricks have been tried, from hiding peas in the mashed potatoes to flying the food directly into the mouth via Spoon Airlines. American model and author Chrissy Teigen came up with her own plan, and it got many parents nodding in approval.
Perhaps the root cause of many toddlers’ pickiness comes from a desire to be involved, to feel grown up and to be a part of the decision-making process. So Teigen decided that’s exactly what she would try with her daughter Luna, making a restaurant-style ‘menu’ for her to choose from, prices and all!

Somebody noticed the prices and asked what was up with that. Teigen, hoping that Luna might learn an important lesson about the value of money and food, explained that it wasn’t real cash she was charging!
