POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 years agoA. Family meal times: Try and make your child have meals with the family. You can make your child sit in a comfortable chair along with other family members for the meal times. This would encourage her to start with chewing solids. Show her that everyone is chewing the foodSpace meals out properly: Keep appropriate gap to ensure hunger, at least 3-4 hours, between meals. Allocate fixed time for meals. Your child should finish her main meals in 20-25 minutes and for snacks give 10-15 minutes' time to finish. If your child takes longer than that remove the plate. Over a period of time, your child would start finishing her meals on timeLearning by imitation: Children also follow each other. Seeing other children eat solid food would also encourage her to chew. You may sometimes invite over some neighbors, friends or cousins of the same age group to encourage your child
