How to feed a child?
March 15, 2007
Do you worry when your child doesn’t eat? Having problems when it comes to feeding your baby or toddler? Do you invent tricks to shove into the child as much of healthy food as you can?
Do you dance, sing and make plays with a purpose that your child will forget its caprices and open its mouth to eat something?
I never did this. Don’t want to eat – don’t eat.
When you get hungry – come.
To tell the truth – my children weren’t very thin and usually didn’t suffer from lack of appetite.
The youngest child as a rule spoke beforehand: “I don’t like it” to any unfamiliar dish. In this case it is good to invent something to make him at least to taste it. For instance, today I tried to make him to drink cranberry jelly. At last I asked him to close his eyes for I would give him something tasty. Trustful son closed his eyes and opened his mouth, where I poured a spoonful of jelly. The child liked it and he drank a whole glass of jelly.
