Children Food Neophobia - a Playful Intervention at a Kindergarten

The experimental group receive nine educational sessions (one per week) about different vegetables and, at lunch time, they are exposed to a different vegetable. If they try it, they will receive a sticker. In each session, researcher will record their preference for the vegetable and the quantity that they consumed in a scale from one to three (1- the child prooved it; 2 - the child repeated it; 3 - the child ate all the quantity). In the end of 9 sessions, all children (experimental and control group) will receive the same salad that they had eaten at baseline and the procedure will be the same: the salad is weighted before and after the consumption of each child to verify the quantity of each one ate.
