It is required to you
- A set of children's ware and tableware, colourful napkins and towels, children's stool for feeding, healthy and tasty food on age, a diet, a day regimen
Instruction
1. First of all, the decision on what the kid will eat itself from now on has to be supported by all immediate family, otherwise you will achieve positive result at a distant day.
2. Set at least an approximate diet. (Especially children's) it is simpler to organism to digest food approximately at the same time. Besides, it disciplines the child.
3. Present to the baby a set of nice ware and children's tableware. Also bright napkins, small towels, that is everything that will make meal especially pleasant will be useful.
4. When you feed the kid, put one more spoon nearby. It will induce the tot to try to use the device independently. While he only learns to eat itself, encourage him and be happy even if it turns out very inaccurately.
5. Tell the kid how it is correct to eat: not to hurry, not to fill a full mouth, not to talk at meal time, it is good to chew each piece. Before meal and after it together wash hands. You learn to tell "thanks", leaving because of a table.
6. Wipe a mouth to the little eater as soon as it was soiled. Leave a napkin within reach and encourage the child mostof to use with it.
7. Establish tradition of family lunches. Attach great value not only to quality of the prepared dishes, but also the culture of meal. Put the kid for a table d'hote (let so far and on a special chair).
8. Switch off the TV for the period of a meal. Distracting, the child quickly swallows and badly chews therefore he can have violations in work of digestive system.
9. Never punish food. Such manipulation will not take place for the child unnoticed, and you will already suffer from its reciprocal soon (though unconscious) actions.
10. If your child is already able to eat itself, but does not differ in good appetite, do not force it to eat more, than he is able. Put the small, but beautifully issued portions on a plate. Besides, create conditions in order that the kid spent more energy – active games in the fresh air perfectly will be suitable for this purpose.
11. Usually children eat in the company of the peers who are already able to do it independently more willingly. Sometimes invite on a visit familiar kids with mothers, organize a peculiar formal dinner party (by the way, involve kids in table layout). But you should not shame the child if at him it is impossible to eat also dexterously, as at the friend. It is enough to tell that soon and he will achieve the same success.
12. Even if you hurry, let's the child independently stop eating, do not help him. Begin meal of usual better slightly earlier. The exception can be made if the tot began to eat itself, but through some time was tired and also if he badly feels.
