Q.

my son is 18 months old, I use to feed him by playing rhymes on tv whenever he disliked eating food but now he doesn't want to eat if I won't play rhymes on tv, how to avoid him watching tv during meals before he gets completely addicted to it?

A. Slice your kid's food into unique shapes such as cucumber sliced as ribbons or broccoli topped with conical tomatoes. Add some colourful items like bell peppers and carrots to make the dish look more interesting and enticing to the little ones. Start an eating contest - but do it only once in a while and not always otherwise the kid won't want to eat without a contest and a reward.

A. Make meal time a family event whenever possible. Make your kid learn about the social aspects of eating and dining together by setting examples. Show that you are enjoying your food and finish it to make your kid do the same. The kid will certainly follow your lead. Serve fruits and veggies unusually. Create some fun with food. Try giving him a bowl full of vibrant, fresh fruits that are nicely chopped and mixed with whipped cream and chocolate syrup. Make a nice veggie salad including broccoli, lettuce, corn, peas, carrot, bell peppers, capsicum etc. Add salad dressing and low fat mayo in good quantity for your little one to relish it. Experiment with food shapes. Serve their food looking like an animal or a favourite cartoon, etc. Simple cookie cutters can help you with animal and flower shapes. Serve the food in colourful bowls, tiffin boxes and feeding trays.
