One way we can get James to eat is to pretend that his hands are spiders. He dances them around the table and says, "SPIDERS! SPIDERS MOM!" Then I have to say, "Well let's see if this bite of ____ will make them stop!" He amazingly LOVES this game and falls for it every time. It's so funny.
The other game is when we pretend that he has turned into a monster, and a bite of whatever will turn him back in to MY JAMES. Wouldn't you know? It works! ;)
We used to have the luxury of getting him to eat his green vegetables by playing the game where everyone takes a bite together. Mommy has broccoli, Daddy has broccoli, James has broccoli, 1...2...3... go! He won't do that one anymore, so now I'm wondering how long the spiders and monster game will last. We're going on two months now, I'm afraid it's gonna be gone soon! NOOOOOO! :)
He actually LIKES green vegetables though, to my amazement.
