Hey friends,
How is it going? So did you comment on the last post? DID YOU?? :P No, let's just get straight into the topic. We all know how important nutrients are for us and of course, for our child(ren). We all want to be healthy and want the same for our child(ren). Yes, we get worried when our children are not eating well and the biggest of all, we worry about our picky eaters. Thank God, I don't have a picky eater, or do I? Well, for now I can safely say I don't.
We get stressed on very little issues, almost on no issues at all. So many people get worried, which is fine, when their children are not eating "on time". I know, we all have a set daily routine and breakfast, lunch and dinner are included in that routine. What we do is that we "expect" our child(ren) to eat only in those set routines; by doing so, in my opinion, we are pushing our child(ren) away from loving food and from eating. What I like to do is that I let Ar be hungry so that she asks me for her meal. I have a time frame, not a set routine, in which I know she will be hungry so I keep the food ready. But I don't sit her down and try to shove it up her mouth, I wait for her to ask for it. I do that because I have seen mothers "running" after their children trying to feed them. The food may be good, but when a child is not hungry, he is not hungry! Period.
How can I not add this photo when we are talking about food?
In this case, ENJOY! :)
