Seven tips to make your baby love eating

The baby in the family is the focus of the family, but many children do not like to eat, so this makes many parents distressed, so let us tell you how to make children eat healthier.

1. Let your baby eat dishes of different flavors, colors and textures, which will make your baby always interested in meals. Even very young babies can get bored of eating the same thing every day.

2. Parents should avoid behaviors such as "chasing and feeding" and paying too much attention to their children's eating. When a child deliberately refuses to eat, parents should not indulge him/her. If he/she skips one or two meals, parents should not worry, as this means that the energy intake of the child is sufficient and the child will naturally ask to eat after a certain period of time. Parents should never use meeting the child's demands as a condition for getting the child to eat.

3. Provide your baby with healthy snacks. Babies consume a lot of energy every day because they move around a lot, so nutritious snacks can replenish your baby's energy, such as fruit slices (fresh or dried), natural yogurt, rice cakes, and bread sticks.

4. Don’t feed your baby fast food. If you take your baby out for a walk during meal time, you’d better bring some healthy food with you so that you don’t have to rely on fast food restaurants. French fries, hamburgers, and sausages are high in fat, salt, and sugar, and contain many additives, so they should be avoided.

5. Improve the eating environment so that children can concentrate on eating and keep a good mood.

6. Don’t use sweets as rewards. If you want your baby to like eating fresh fruits and vegetables, set an example for your baby by eating plenty of these foods yourself first. Don't expect your baby to like fruit if you always give him cookies and chocolate as snacks and sweets as rewards (these foods will make your baby crave more and more sweets and cause them to develop cavities). You can't bargain with your baby to eat fruits and vegetables, as this will form a habit that is difficult to break.

7. Among the drinks given to babies, water is the best and most refreshing, so water should be the first choice. If your baby's appetite is not very good, don't give him drinks with too much sugar before he eats, because drinking these things will make him not feel hungry.
