Meals where there are lots of bits to choose from – picky teas, picnic teas, tapas, mezze, whatever you choose to call it – really appeal to children. This is because they can control what they put on their plate to enjoy and there’s usually something they’re familiar with and like to eat. 

A meal made up of a spread of kebabs, salads, dips and breads is a brilliant picky tea for children and adults alike. Just be sure to include a couple of accepted foods in the mix – whether that’s a preferred vegetable, some fruit, their favourite bread product, some cheese or even plain yoghurt.
