A. Let your child decide the quantity – Rely on your child’s appetite centre in his brain and let him decide how much he wants to eat.Limit his snacks to two per day – Do not allow more than two snacks per day between mealtimes. Loading up on snacks will decrease your toddler’s appetite.Limit fluid intake – Put the cap on fluid intake at about 480 ml per day, as fluids (apart from drinking water) contain calories that can make the child feel full.Serve different varieties – You can rotate the menu and add new recipes to keep your child interested and also learn about his food preferences.Get creative with the presentation – Make food fun with creative shapes and colours or even fancy little plates and cutlery.Serve small portions – Smaller portions are less overwhelming to look at and eat, which means your toddler can finish off his plate of food quicker than if you’d serve him large portions. He may even ask for a second serving.Fix mealtimes – A fixed timing can regularise your toddler’s appetite and prepare him for meals.
