A. hi let child feed on his own even if it makes mess around the dish. Ask child to feed on their own by making them sit together with family . donot worry if child eats less. you can give some food later again.

A. Let your baby practice. Whether it's with his hands or with utensils, your baby will need many opportunities to practice self-feeding. ... Encourage hand feeding. ... Encourage utensil feeding. ... Stay close to your baby during meals. ... Recognize gagging vs. ... Expect and embrace the mess. ... Enjoy family meals. ... Be patient.The trick is to only give them a little food in the bowl at a time. At this point, you are still feeding them most of the meal. If they are doing well scooping up food and at least getting some of it into their mouth, put more and more food into the bowl for them to feed themselves.
