“For many people, cooking the same child-friendly macaroni every night, or just eating at well-known chains, is certainly not an ideal image,” says Iris Vernooij. She has her own practice and works as a pedagogue and nutritionist. “At the same time, you want to keep the atmosphere as cozy as possible for the whole family on holiday. So no pressure on the food and no stress at the table.”
Who with a picky eater According to Vernooij, it is best to start preparing for food during the trip at home. ,, Is your child used to only brown sandwiches and are you going on holiday to France? Then start at home with the occasional baguette, because whole-wheat sandwiches are difficult to get there. If your child can already try new foods in the familiar environment, there is a greater chance that this food will also be accepted abroad.”
