What to try
- If you find that your toddler is starting to show preferences for things they like and dislike, try wrapping items that they dislike loosely in some form of paper.
- For example, if your toddler doesn’t want their snack, or they won’t keep shoes or socks on, wrap up the food or items of clothing.
Good to know
This won’t stop refusals; however, it might provide a distraction and create excitement about what might be inside.
