Children nutritional concerns
Children nutritional concerns is a cause of alarm to every parent or caregiver when they approach the ages between two and six years owing to the loss of appetite and developing repulsive behavior towards eating (Physical Development, 2020). The first eating tip is serving balanced diet meals since the meals at home tend to have high nutritional value than those frozen ones or fast foods. Serving a balanced meal will also ensure that the child moves away from the flavored meals that children traditionally prefer. The other tip is having limited choices of meals and not asking the child what they will eat to instil the culture of having the child take a balanced diet meal often (Physical Development, 2020). The third tip is not forcing the child to take meals, a practice that would ensure that the child harbors anger or apathy towards eating.
These tips are, to a great extent, cultural. In most Western cultures, caregivers do not allow the children to dictate the foods they will eat and will often have timetables for eating and the type of food to be eaten. Again, the children are also not forced to eat, and their parents prefer giving them food and the liberty they deserve with the food, but they simultaneously encourage them to eat. On the same note, it is a cultural practice in the western countries to provide the child with a balanced diet as opposed to the sugary and salty meals that children often prefer. Most parents prefer giving children homemade meals over fast or frozen foods.
