Children are very clear - If I like it I will chew and eat ( Chocolates, cakes, pastries, chips ,etc) , if I don’t want it then your grind it and stuff it my throat !!😁
This , contrary to the general belief, is not appetite loss , it’s a SELECTIVE loss of appetite and is extremely common among toddlers.
Tips to handle ; 1)
1)Avoid grinding solid foods .
2)Avoid pre meal snacks, especially sugary ones , at least one 1.5 hours before meal time .
3) Avoid force feeding because that will create food aversion.
4) Avoid gadgets while feeding.
5) Eat meal together as a family .
6) You yourself as parents must consume healthy meals to set an example because kids just copy us.
7) Keel discussing the nutritional benefits and importance of the particular food while having it .
8) Most importantly don’t resort to short cuts of rewards saying “if you finish this then I will buy this toy”!!
9) Be extremely patient because “ this too shall pass “😁 #fussyeaters #pickyeaters #tantrums #toddler #problem #parenting #feeding
