How to correct children's bad eating habits

1. Failure to add complementary food in time: During the critical period of adding complementary food to infants, infants were not given proper exercise, which made their chewing ability and taste development lag behind children of the same age.

Coping methods: From the fourth month of the baby, with the growth of the baby's age, gradually add complementary food according to the principle of from less to more, from one to more, from soft to hard, from fine to coarse.

2. Eat while playing: Some parents see that their children don't like to eat, so they tell stories and play games while eating. The result is counterproductive, which not only further distracts children's attention to eating, but also easily leads to accidents such as suffocation.

Coping method: Try the encouragement method: Ignore the child when he is not eating well, but when he picks up the spoon and eats well, tell him immediately that he likes the way he eats.

3. Hate the color of certain foods: Many children don't like black foods, such as sesame sauce and Nostoc flagelliforme. You may not like some novel foods that taste different from your usual diet.

Coping methods: Parents should attract their children in appropriate ways, such as designing meals with unique colors, flavors and shapes, mixing them with children's favorite foods, or guiding them with acceptable reasons.

4. The variety of food is too monotonous: some mothers are worried that their baby's digestion and absorption are not good, and they always give him several kinds of "safe" foods that they often eat, which makes children feel disgusted.

Coping methods: the cooking methods of dishes should not be the same, and a variety of foods should be mixed as much as possible, and the taste is mainly light. Even if there is only one egg, it can be made into egg cake, egg soup and egg soup. Don't always let the baby eat boiled eggs.

5, influenced by parents' eating habits: parents try not to criticize food in front of their children, even if they don't like it, they should give it to their children.

Coping methods: Usually children around the age of two begin to learn the behavior of people around them; The formation of some bad diets and table manners may be acquired unconsciously.

6. Parents care too much: some children know that their parents care very much about whether they have enough to eat, so they use these to control their parents and put forward many conditions, such as: I won't eat until you buy something for me.

Coping method: once it becomes a "chip", the problem can't disappear, let alone be completely solved. In fact, parents' anxiety about their children eating too little or not eating is mainly because they are worried that their children are malnourished and thinner than other children. But in fact, everyone is born tall and thin. As long as children are healthy, they are not inferior.

7. I had an unpleasant experience: if I had a stomachache or was very uncomfortable after eating some food before, or I was forced to eat it in an unpleasant environment. This will make children feel resistant to this kind of food, which is very repulsive.

Coping methods: Parents should try to avoid scolding their children at the dinner table, so as not to spoil the dining atmosphere. Don't force your child to eat too hot food, which will damage your baby's delicate oral mucosa. And eating hot food often can cause cancer. Let alone leave the child there.
