I like the "eat half" idea. I don't think the "happy plate" would work, but it's worth a shot! =) Some days, I just let my pickiest eater get down from the table when everyone is done, but no dessert. Sometimes, he comes back later saying, "I'm hungry" so I tell him to finish his supper. Most of the time, he'll finish it. I guess, some children just have to be really hungry before they'll eat some foods. =) My oldest outgrew his 'picky-ness' by 4 1/2 or 5, so I'm hoping my 3 1/2yo will outgrow it in a year. I'm also expecting my 19mo to become picky by 2yo. I don't cater to pickies, but I've learned to expect it! I think it comes with learning Independence.
