Some children do not like the vegetable flakes in their food, while some children do not like spices. This reason for finding faults in children becomes heavy on them in the future. Parents do worry, but after a time, they are unable to improve the eating habits of their children even if they want to. In such a situation, you need to make efforts to correct their habits right now. Today in this episode, we are going to tell you how to improve the bad eating habits of children. Let's know about them...

Let the child eat by himself.

Once your child starts walking, that is, when he is about 1-1.5 years old, then parents should stop feeding the child with their hands. Develop this habit in the child that he should sit independently and eat his food by himself. By doing this, your child will neither find fault in the food nor will you have to face any problem in feeding him. He will eat whatever is given in his plate.

Decorate and serve the child's plate.

While preparing the child's plate, you need to be a little creative and innovative. While preparing the child's plate, keep in mind that you decorate it well and serve it, introduce dishes of different colors. This will increase the child's interest in food.

Teach to chew food

Teach children to chew food properly. Many children like to eat food slowly. In such a situation, due to hurry, many parents ask children to eat quickly, which is not good for the child's health at all. Try to be with the child while eating and ask him to chew the food as much as possible.

Explain the importance of nutrition to the child.

It is very difficult to explain the importance of nutrition to children, but if you want, you can explain its importance to children through colors. To maintain good health of children, it is necessary that they eat 7 colors of food every day and in this way you can explain the importance of nutrition to them through colors. Tell children about the importance of which color for our body.

Eat together

Children sometimes shy away from eating alone. In such a situation, when you sit to eat with the family, put the child's plate and serve it to him. Seeing everyone eating, he will also be inspired to eat. Yes, during this time, do not forget to keep an eye on the child's plate whether he is eating or not.

Make him sit in a quiet place while eating.

Make your child develop the habit of sitting in one place and eating food peacefully. Nowadays most of the children have become so addicted to mobile and TV that they start refusing to eat food without these things. But watching TV while eating can have a bad effect on children's health. Due to this, children do not chew their food properly and it also has a bad effect on their brain. Create a calm environment for the child and ask him to eat peacefully.

Teach them to take food on the plate according to their hunger.

Parents should teach their children to take as much food in the plate as they are hungry. Children often insist on filling the plate with food and later leave it, which leads to wastage of food. Teach children to respect food. Tell them to first take a little food in the plate, finish it and then take more food.
