Tips and Suggestions
Many of the older children tend to go through a longer or shorter periods of selectivity, and do not have to wonder if your child goes through these same stages. One reason is that children from one to four years old yet familiar world, new scents, flavors and forms, and develop its own personality, so when you offer them food unknown to them, simply will not be afraid to try. Your child will need time to learn that all the food that mixes into a delicious and safe to eat. A, will teach how to look at how you eat the same food. With time and it will taste more different foods.
Here, you can do to help and speed up the process a bit:
First When your child eats, you eat. Your child will learn to eat certain foods, if you and you alone to eat this food, including other family members, and older brothers and sisters.
Second When you eat certain foods that your child does not want to eat their meals several times as much praise on the delicious meal that you eat. After that, your child will be more willing to taste the food.
Third Try to create a daily routine of eating. Three times a day, a large meal, and two to three snacks a day.There is a possibility that the child will not eat enough, if before that was too hungry. It is the child who is too tired. What you can do is that if a child is very hungry before it's time for the main course, allow it to less healthy snacks, and also if your child is too tired to hold out the main course, solve the problem with a healthy snack, as the main wait after a meal to get some sleep.
4th For the main course always offer two courses - such as soup and main course or main course and dessert.The children quickly tired of one flavor, aroma and appearance of food, and want to try something new. With this type of diet, will ensure that your child gets all the nutrients that it needs, and will eat much more than if you offer him only one sequence.
5th Your child will eat your meal within 20 minutes, maybe half an hour. After that, regardless of your demanding, pleading, threats, and the like. Your child probably will not want to eat. In this case, if you think your child has not eaten enough, wait for the next snack time, and give him something healthy. On the other hand, do not rush your child into eating, because some kids are just slow, it does not mean they are not hungry and do not want to eat. It is your rush will impair appetite.
6th When you notice that your child eats more and happily, be sure to praise him. Specifically, all children respond very well to praise. If you just attach the child attention when not eating enough, there is a possibility that they will start eating less or refuse food, just to get attention from you. Kids love the attention, even if it was negative. If a child does not eat enough, say once is not enough to take a plate and eaten. Reward your child when you eat enough praise.
7th Do not put too much on the child's portion of the plate, because it might scare it would all have to eat and will eat less. I'd rather put you exactly how much you think you should eat (be realistic in assessing) and if you eat everything, praise your child and ask him if he wants more.
8th Since the beginning navikavajte your child to eat without interference from the side, such as television, toys and games. When will the child focus on something else will not want to eat. Once you get used to eating a child playing, watching TV, etc.. will find it difficult to quit it.
9th Do not force your child to finish everything on your plate, even though the practice of many parents. When a child has finished eating, a plate is not empty, let him know that he must take a few bites. If you do not take do not force anything, and if you take it, reward him with praise.
10th When your child does not want to eat prepared food, not to take him and give him something else, that is what he loves. It can quickly turn into manipulation with you. Tell him you will not get anything to eat if you do not eat at least some of the dishes offered. If the child really feels an aversion to certain food (no one likes to eat absolutely everything), try not to offer him in the future.
11th Do not offer sweets as a reward, because the child will prefer to eat smaller main course, to have a "place" for dessert.
12th Just because your child is refusing to eat certain foods, does not mean it will happen in the future. Each time you save a certain food, offer it to him. Sometimes you will need to offer a specific course and 10-odd more times.
In control
Children over two years of life can lead to purchase and prepare food you'll eat later, you may very well affect your child's attitude towards food. When a child sees, from where the food comes, it seems, will get used to it, and much easier to try it.
It is known that children are always in a different setting to eat more, but not because the food that you mixes worse, but because children respond positively to new environments in which they feel comfortable. From time to time, take your child on a picnic in the yard or park, made a dish where it is not common.
Probably most of you remember how our parents did not give before eating any sweets, snacks or drinks, which would be fed up with us, and we could not eat the main course. The same tactics should definitely be implemented in your child, especially if the child does not want to eat. Then, his diet should be more kontroliraniji.
If you are still worried about your child or his diet, make a list of foods that your child eats, and try to think that you could spravljati similar dishes, and that will give variety to the diet. You know your child best, so you need to be imaginative, and sometimes a bit tricky. They certainly did not clever to you, but you will certainly be on a daily basis to bring in new trials and tested your limits. As an adult and mature people need to resist them, no matter how hard it seems.
Remember, good eating habits come from a family and to you to teach your child the culture dishes. It can be a lengthy process that will last for years, until he grows up, but that's including your role as educators and foster parents.
