A mum has revealed her genius hack to get fussy kids to eat their peas - by making them laugh. Alley Dezenhouse Kelner, 36, says her trick “transformed” her tot’s fussy eating habits at just 18 months - and it still works for her now at eight years old.
Alley came up with the method, which she called “Freeze Peas”, with her husband, Billy, 36, after their daughter, eight, was reluctant to eat her peas. To try and get her to eat them, Billy, who works on the financial side of Alley's business Magnificent Minds, would try and make her laugh by freezing on the spot whenever she ate a forkful.
Finding it “hysterical” their daughter felt encouraged to keep eating her peas. In order to “keep her on her toes” Billy only froze during random forkfuls of peas and eventually “the plate was clean” for the first time.
