If you're trying to get your children to eat their greens- then help is at hand.

German scientists say the secret to getting kids to eat vegetables is to give them more time for their food.

The Telegraph reports researchers found allowing children 10 more minutes to finish their dinner means they consume an extra portion of greens.

Children involved in the study also drank more water when they had a longer dinner time, and were less likely to snack.

A BBC study stated the top 5 vegetables your child should eat include avocado, sweet potato, and cherry tomatoes.

Baby carrots and peas were also in the top 5, with both vegetables containing plenty of fibre.
