Feeding Young Children

Overview  Creating a positive feeding relationship  Feeding your toddler  Feeding your preschooler

Creating a Positive Feeding Relationship Feeding works best when parents and caregivers share the responsibilities of feeding with children!  Parent’s Responsibility  Child’s Responsibility

Sharing the Responsibility of Infant Feeding  Parent: What to offer the child  Child: How much they eat and even whether or not they eat anything at all!

Sharing the Responsibility of Feeding Toddlers and Preschoolers  Parent: What foods are offered When food is offered Where food is offered  Child: How much to eat and even whether or not to eat!

Help Toddlers Reach These Goals:  Feels positive about eating  Relies on internal cues (like hunger)  Eats enough to satisfy appetite  Enjoys different foods

Help Toddlers Reach These Goals:  Can try new foods  Can politely turn down or ignore foods  Can “make do” when necessary (we don’t always get our favorites!)

Typical Toddler Traits  Skeptical  Erratic  Opinionated

What Toddlers Need  Planned meals and snacks  Pleasant family meals  Developmentally appropriate foods

What Toddlers Need  Freedom to eat or not to eat  Freedom to decide which foods to eat and how much  To explore his food

Foods for Toddler  Soft, moist, easy to chew.  Adequate in fat content.  Pair strange/disliked food with liked food.  Have bread on the table.  Starchy foods often popular.  Offer favorite foods sometimes.

Tips for Parents  Have structure and set limits.  Allow toddler autonomy (within your limits).  Allow toddler to explore food.

Tips for Parents  Accept that food intake will vary.  Believe that toddler will select a healthful diet over time.  Enjoy the adventure of these years.

Food Preparation: What Toddlers Can Do!  Scrub fruits and veggies  Tear lettuce  Break snacks into pieces  Snap beans  Dip veggies, fruits, or chips

What Preschoolers are Like  High energy  Self-aware  Want to please and imitate  Playful

What Preschoolers Need  Structured meals and snacks  Pleasant mealtimes  Cooking experiences  Opportunities to grow … like eating out

Food Preparation: Preschooler  3 yrs: pour, mix, wrap, spread, shake, serve portions  4 yrs: wipe, wash, set table, peel, spread, cut, roll, mash, crack eggs, pour pre-measured ingredients  5 yrs: make simple breakfasts and lunches, measure, cut, grind, grate

Enjoy these years with your children! They pass so quickly...
