How to make your baby love eating

I believe that many mothers always have a headache about the problem of children's eating. Children do not eat well at mealtime. They either play with toys or run around. Adults are anxious behind them. The baby seems to know what people are thinking and does whatever makes people angry. At this time, don't rush to criticize the child. Think of a way first and take some small measures to correct the child to develop the correct way of eating.

1. Prepare special dining chairs. First: There are many styles on the market now, and you can choose the color and style that your child likes. The most important thing is to choose one that is easy to clean; second: There should be a range of adjustment, because babies start eating complementary foods at 6 months and should not sit for a long time; third: Let the baby concentrate on eating, and do not put any toys on the dining table.

2. Eat on time. Let your baby get used to eating on time and gradually develop the baby's eating habits and time.

3. Prepare cute tableware. I am used to asking my baby before buying something. Even if he doesn't understand anything, I will still take the initiative to ask him: "Is this good? Do you like it?" Although I finally decided to buy it, he was still a little excited when he saw it!

4. Allow your baby to use his hands and mouth more. At the beginning, when the baby eats, he will make the dining table messy and dirty, and even the floor will be covered with rice and vegetable leaves. We should let him do it. Some mothers may not be able to stand it, but they should learn to accept it.

5. Do not force your child to eat. Sometimes babies don’t have a good appetite or they don’t want to eat something they don’t like, but the mother will worry that the baby hasn’t eaten and force the baby to eat. In this way, the baby will gradually become averse to eating.

6. Keep snacks at home and give your children small rewards occasionally, preferably between meals. Try not to give snacks before meals as they can easily fill their stomachs and affect their enthusiasm for eating.

7. We should allow babies to be picky eaters occasionally. Just like we adults sometimes don’t like certain tastes and textures, children also don’t like them sometimes, so we should be more understanding. I have been trying to figure out what my child likes to eat. As for the ones he doesn't like very much, I will cook them in a different way. If he still doesn't want to eat, I will no longer force him.

8. Observe what your child likes or dislikes. When we watch cartoons, read story books, or draw with our children, we should pay attention to what they like. For example, we can draw a carrot together today, and then make a carrot for him for dinner. We should tell him that this is a carrot. Learning to connect the knowledge in the book with things will have a deeper impression and help cultivate children's learning ability. As the old saying goes: Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles!
