"People are iron rice is steel, a meal is not hungry panic."
The baby's meal is the mother's breast milk or baby milk powder, but this is only a transitional time, and this time is only half a year.
After 6 months, the child's teeth sprout out, the child's gastrointestinal tract is more mature, it is necessary to add complementary food to the child as soon as possible.
The addition of complementary foods is an important stage in a child's transition from milk to adult diet.
When adding complementary foods to children, it is not only necessary to exercise the ability of children to eat complementary foods in the gastrointestinal tract, but also to exercise the child's ability to eat on their own. After all, eating three meals a day, the later stage also depends on the child to do it himself.
And the child's fine motor development before the age of one has not been perfected, the use of eating this action that will be carried out every day, to exercise the child's fine movements, but also to stimulate the child's hand movements, stimulate the child's brain, can make the child's brain more sensitive and smarter.
From an early age, the child will eat by himself, which will make him feel that eating is an interesting thing, and in the process of eating, his full attention is focused on the matter of eating.
It can make children eat more attentively, be able to appreciate the taste of the meal, let the children fall in love with eating, and make the children less picky about anorexia.
Children before the age of one is an important time to eat independently, divided into 4 stages, parents should know
The first stage: 6 months with the addition of complementary foods
Some mothers feel that their breast milk is more sufficient, and they will not add complementary foods until after the child is 7 months or even 8 months, but they find that the child is accustomed to drinking breast milk and then let him eat complementary foods, which is more difficult.
Because you miss the best time for your child's taste buds to be sensitive, if you add complementary foods to your child, it will be difficult for your child to accept complementary foods again.
【JingMa Reminder】
When a child born at full term is 6 months old, he or she should add complementary foods to the child in time, so as not to miss the best time for the child to add complementary foods, causing difficulties in adding complementary foods to the child.
The second stage: 8 months of hand grasping
It is recommended that parents make some finger food for their children, so that children can hold it in their hands and put it in their mouths to eat, which is conducive to children exercising the fine movements of their hands.
When the child eats finger food, he can feel the taste of the food, and he can also play with the food, the food is not only a food, but also his toy, in this process the child's fine movements can be well exercised.
Parents should often make finger food for their children to exercise their children's ability to eat independently.
The third stage: 10 months with a spoon
When the child is 10 months old, it is recommended that parents use special tableware for their children, such as using a green bowl and a red spoon, so that the color of the child's tableware has a certain visual impact, so that the child likes these tableware.
When the child likes the tableware, he will be willing to accept the use of these tableware to eat, at this time you can give the child exercise with a spoon to eat, although at the beginning the child eats all over the place, but this is actually the process of the child learning to eat.
He is practicing grasping the spoon with his hand, controlling the spoon, and putting the food in the bowl to his mouth, which is actually a difficult process for him, and when his hands become more and more skilled, his brain is also more exercised.
Parents should not be afraid to dirty the floor with dirty clothes, but can spread a layer of newspaper on the floor where the child eats, or plastic film, and withdraw it after the child has finished eating.
Let the child be dirty, let the child learn to eat on his own, let the child eat more fragrant, and let the child's brain get better exercise.
The fourth stage: one year old to let the child eat on their own
After the child is one year old, let the child eat independently. Because the amount of milk the child drinks every day after the age of one year slowly decreases, the amount of food increases.
Let the child eat by himself, let the child master the amount of his own meal, let the child understand the feeling of hunger and fullness, can be more conducive to the child to consume enough nutrients needed by his body, can also reduce the probability of the child's picky anorexia, but also let the child get enough exercise when eating fingers, the brain gets enough stimulation.
After the child is one year old, parents try not to feed again.
Therefore, there are still many taboos for children to add complementary foods, and parents can eat well and grow well if they do it right.
