NO! Do not make 6 different things unless you are a Michelin Star Restaurant chef and your child is reviewing your establishment :P
Instead, make life as easy as possible for yourself.
We like to do a 2x2x2 setup.
Make 2 bowls with a protein, like chicken nuggets, cut up meatballs, or fried tofu.
Then 2 bowls of a veggie or starch, like peas and carrots, broccoli, or french fries.
Then 2 bowls of something fun for them. Maybe strawberries, or blueberries, or sweet potato.
The idea is fast and simple. And if you keep some of these in the fridge or the freezer, dinner can be as simple as heating some food up, putting it in the bowls, and rolling the dice.
If you're still looking for some ideas for your Big Food Adventure game, check out the No Cook Cookbook :)
Ok, we understand that games are about following rules, but this is their game. The idea here isn't to GET THEM TO EAT. It's to get them to build a happy healthy relationship with mealtime. This means making fun family memories, and giving them control to own their space.
Still work with them, but don't force them or make it unhappy.
Things you can try:
Ask them, "Ok, you can reroll, but what ever comes up, we have to eat."
Or, "How about just one bite, then reroll?"
And even, "What if I switch that bowl out for some different food?"
Remember, this game is about making mealtime memories, not about manipulating them into eating.
