The kid big guy with appetite eating greedily porridge and the grateful adults offering it a spoon behind a spoon "for dad, for mom" – a dream of any parent. But reality such is that a huge number of fathers and mothers faces an opposite problem.
It is considered that the good appetite at the child is a sign of good health. Really, the appetite at children decreases if they get sick. Therefore, first of all, it is necessary to exclude direct dependence between a loss of appetite and the state of health of the child. But how to be if the kid is healthy, but eats badly, does not show interest in food, and at the sight of food begins to be capricious or in general refuses it? Many mothers consider a plentiful table pledge of fortress and strength of the child. Therefore they try to feed the child what it costed them. And thus, consuming food more, than in it there is a need, there is an overload of a children's organism. Certainly, it is necessary to take necessary measures that your child ate, but it is impossible to force the kid at all is with a great effort, violently to feed him. It can develop in him emergence of the negative associations connected with acceptance of food. Never abuse, do not intimidate children if they badly eat. You will not achieve due effect, and the mood will be spoiled, and even the eaten lunch will hardly go for the future. It is possible that your child does not accept some types of food which you consider useful to it. And the child can not accept tastes of a product or how it looks. Try to find replacement with that to products which are of nutritional value for the kid, but are not accepted by him. Try to adhere to a daily diet. Presence of certain traditions is always important for children. Create a certain ritual of acceptance of food – in certain hours, with beautiful laying, whenever possible, together with other family members. At a table it is not necessary to be distracted by watching television, it will be better if at this moment you discuss any affairs, to be interested in how passed at the child day. The aspect of communication is important for children. Turn consumption of food into interesting joint pastime. Create the friendly atmosphere at a table. Children are very sensitive when adults are concerned by something, raise the voice, are nervous. If your child already grew up, you can involve him in cooking process. Give it a small task: to pomesit a test piece, to stick together varenik, to put a sour cream spoon, to add seasoning to a dish. Let at it not at once everything will turn out, but interest in food will appear by all means. Diversify a daily food allowance of your kid. Food has to be not only tasty and useful, but also interestingly issued, to contain new products. It is good to eat and with appetite it will turn out not at once, but it is necessary to show a maximum of patience and understanding that your kid had interest in food.
