The notion of a balanced diet is introduced at school, starting in primary school. At home, teach your child from an early age to eat well, to prefer certain foods and to eat others in small quantities. If your child "shuns" certain foods, offer him other foods from the same group (e.g. yoghurt if he doesn't like milk) to teach him to eat everything. Continue to offer the rejected food, at least once a month and in the same form. It's also important to set an example: show him that you eat the same thing he does, and that you like it.
