A. Namaste Mom It isn't ideal as such and would encourage to do it as this habit isn't beneficial in any way the child does not realise what they are consuming the portion size etc instead use some age appropriate books as such read to them

A. Yes,it can be very harmful because baby don’t know there tummy is full and secondly he don’t know how to eat on his own

A. It’s okay occasionally, but regular cartoon time during meals can make kids depend on screens for eating. I use the Parent Geenee app to set gentle screen limits and keep mealtime more mindful.

A. Hello my dear parent! Watching screens, while eating will not make your child, understand the food texture, the taste and the flavours. Because most of the concentration is now visually onto the screen, so mind is tuned to that not on the plate. Gradually reduces your child’s appetite and concentration levels. Please avoid them. Try engaging your child with some good Babyhug books and activities.
