Video - Meal time
The Twins love to eat .
They are not picky eaters .
So far that is - Haha
The trick is -
1. To introduce variety of food from the age of 6 months . Stick to the same menu for 3 days and only then change . Let them accustomed to the taste . Be it Broccoli , Carrots , etc
2. Feed them when really hungry
Withhold Milk 3 hours before Food . They wouldn’t eat if their tummy is full .
3. No Sugar or Salt
Not to add additional flavours . Once a baby love the taste of sweetness he will refuse others . Many toddlers refused Milk after given Chocolate Milk or Sweetened drinks .
4. Keep it natural
Be it purée Brocolli ,Carrots or Sweet Potato let it be in its original taste . Do not confuse their taste buds .
5. Stick to Meals Routine
Babies know their Meals timing if given at the same time and will get excited about it .
6. Make Meals fun
Serving Meals to babies should be in a fun manner . You can allow Babies to play with their Finger Food for some time before serving them . But can be messy .
7. The right amount
Not too much and not too little . Small amount can leave the Baby frustrated and leave them in tantrums .
8. Encourage them
While feeding , say how tasty the Food is . Clap and kiss them when they finish their meal . This encourages babies to finish their meals each time .
9. Taste it first
Taste the food before serving to them . It will give you the experience to know what kind of food your baby loves.
10. Don’t give up
Just because the Baby doesn’t like one kind of Food doesn’t really mean he doesn’t like them . Try again the next day with different approach .
Babies should be introduced to a balanced Meal comprising of Carbs , Proteins and Vegetables. Allow plain water between feeds .
It’s best to start the above techniques from the age of 6 months .
