Raising An UnPicky Eater!
Allowing your toddler to listen to his own body’s cues will encourage happy and healthy eating habits.
Here are a few key priorities to encourage healthy and happy eating habits:
☞ Don’t push your kids to eat. Don’t comment on what and how much they’re eating.
☞ Do eat meals together whenever possible. Your child is watching everything you do and you can inspire positive eating habits purely by being a good example.
☞ Don’t make desserts a reward. Avoid good food/bad food labels.
☞ Do let your kids feed themselves
☞ Don’t use screens to distract your child during meals. While it may seem to help early on, it will turn into a trap down the road.
☞ Do include foods you know your child will eat at each meal.
Lastly, you're not a good (or bad) parent based on what your child eats.
