Accepted Answer

hi
mam , whenever you give grinded food , gradually increase its consistency  ,it will help to make your child habituated to chew food well.
to encourage your child for taking chapati well , I advise to give Chapati in small shapes like star heart etc using shape cutter
it will make your work easy.

remove all meal time distractions,  so that the baby can focus on meal time, then she can be able to gradually learn chewing... ... . ... . . .
