Nutritional and beneficial tips for preschoolers!

It is very important for the parents to feed their kids good nutritional food every day, since they are in the growing age and they need to stay fit and healthy. It is sometimes very difficult for the mothers to feed their kids nutritional food, because most of the kids are more fascinated towards the Junk food stuff that they get in the shops. Parents have to literally compel their kids to eat good food.

Your child should gain about 4 to 6 pound per year and 2 to 3 inches in height per year. If your child isn’t growing as per these figures, you may have a problem. Here are some useful tips for the parents who want to give nutritional food to this child:

1- You should allow your kid to eat 5-6 small meals each day.

2- Don not stop them from eating anytime, let them eat anytime they want.  

3- Feed them through storytelling, or make different shapes of the food, add some color in their meal, for e.g., leafy vegetables, tomatoes and dal.

4- Do not help them eat, as it can be irritating for them and they might give up soon, so let them enjoy by eating their meals themselves.

5- You should serve yourself the same food and eat with your child.

6- Make the eating experience for your kid enjoyable.

7- Don’t ever use food as a reward or as a punishment.
