Here is how to get a kid to like broccoli. First you might want to describe how it tastes, or what is best to eat with your broccoli. Next you should have a plan. In your plan you might want your broccoli hidden in some food. Here are some things that taste good with broccoli: other vegetables, cheese or other kinds of sauces. So, try some broccoli and good luck with your plan.

How to make a kid eat broccoli is to put it in a drink.

I can get kids to eat broccoli by tricking them and telling them that it is celery and making them eat it.

Tell them that if you eat your broccoli, you'll grow big and strong. You'll then be tall enough to ride on roller coasters and big kids won't pick on you anymore. You'll get to go on big kid rides and sit in the back of the bus. You'll be so tall and big, you'll save the world.

Kids should eat broccoli because it is for their health. Put broccoli in soup and in melted cheese. Try ranch dressing.

I found a way to get kids to eat their broccoli. The way I came up with this is to cook the broccoli and when it's finished cooking but it in a bowl. Next, you put mozzarella cheese and put it in the microwave and let the cheese melt. After the cheese melts put it on the child's plate and let them try it. I bet they will like it.

To make kids eat broccoli, you should put the kid's favorite toppings on it, like ketchup or chocolate. That would make them clean their plate.

I would say to please eat your broccoli because if you don't do it, you will have to eat cabbage.
