Many parents are familiar with the problem when the child refuses to eat. So what can you do to ensure that such a problem never arises?
Instructions
Step 1
Don't force your child to eat what they don't like. Often, children develop a dislike for certain foods, this is an age-related passing phenomenon, but if a child is forced to eat this product by force, then he may develop a real phobia towards him. It is better to exclude this product from the child's diet for a while. When the dislike is forgotten, you can gradually put it in the child's plate. If the negative reflex is not persistent, the child will forget about it, and if it is persistent, then you will not do anything about it. It remains only to accept.
Step 2
Positive emotions from the process of eating. The environment in which the child eats can greatly influence the child's attitude to food. Try to postpone all problems for another time, the more welcoming the atmosphere at the table, the better. You should not put your child at the table at a time when he is naughty. Let her calm down first. Do not constantly tug at the child, pay attention to your behavior at the table, become an example of a good appetite for him. Dishes also matter. Pay attention to your baby's favorite dishes, offer him food in it.
Step 3
Regimen in taking food. Try to get the whole family together at the table regularly. This is certainly not easy, but try to organize a shared breakfast or at least dinner. On Sundays and holidays, sharing a meal should become your family tradition.
Step 4
The child should sit down at the table with a feeling of hunger. Lack of appetite in children is often due to the fact that he is simply full. To achieve a feeling of hunger in a child, it is necessary to teach him to eat at the same time, to ensure sufficient activity of the child or a walk between meals, and not to feed "tasty".
Step 5
Do not scold your child if he has not finished his portion. Clear the table and tell your child what time the next meal will be. In response to his requests to eat before the allotted time, limit yourself to fruit.
Step 6
Watch your portion. Seeing a large portion of food, children often become capricious from the fact that it takes more time for a larger portion. The child was already torn away from the game, and then for a long time. Apply a little and have the baby ask for more. The supplement should become a habit for the child.
Step 7
The food should be tasty and appetizing. Not only do adults understand the taste and are able to appreciate the appearance of a dish, children are also receptive to beauty. Don't forget this.
