You could even add some mild spices to the vegetables to add flavour. Spices such as cumin, coriander, and more can also be rich sources of antioxidants. Pro tip- While you are feeding the child, you can hand them a carrot, for instance. It will offer them sensory delight while using it to soothe their gums!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"578\" src=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Mix-Vegetable-1024x578.jpeg\" alt=\"Mashed Vegetables\" class=\"wp-image-7449\" title=\"Mashed Vegetables\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Mix-Vegetable-1024x578.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Mix-Vegetable-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Mix-Vegetable-768x433.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Mix-Vegetable-1200x678.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Mix-Vegetable.jpeg 1202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Ragi_Porridgeb\"><\/span>4.

These food items high in nutritional value and taste are just what you need to set the child up on a gastronomic journey. As they say, well begun is half done. Pro tip- Do not introduce these foods all at once. There could be instances where the child is allergic to some food. It is, therefore, advisable to introduce these foods one at a time for you to be able to figure out if any of them do not agree with the child. Also, sometimes you may prepare something, and the child may not like it. It is fine. Do not try to force-feed the child. Instead, try re-introducing the same item after a few days. Odds are that the child may like it. Being patient is key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"To_Sum_Up\"><\/span>To Sum Up<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As the child grows older, the key is keeping him away from junk food. Junk food can not only cause nutritional deficiencies, but it can also lead to poor brain development, obesity, and more. Yet another thing to avoid is something that is becoming ubiquitous these days. In our busy lives, we rely a lot on mobile screens to feed the child. Using the TV or the mobile phone to improve mealtimes or reduce fussy eating isn\u2019t likely helpful in the long run. For one, it could lead them to become addicted to the screen. Even if you restrict screen time to mealtimes alone, the fact is that mealtime should ideally be about experiencing the food, not to mention the fact that the social aspect of eating is extremely important. Mealtimes can well be times where the entire family sits together and shares the day. Once phones make their presence during this time, there is little interaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There you go, go ahead and make the best of mealtimes with your little one. Remember, mealtimes should not turn into a power struggle. Trying different flavours and not force-feeding the child can help you make these times pleasurable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\">Footprints Preschool<\/mark><\/a>, the largest chain of play schools and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/program-day-care\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\">daycares<\/mark><\/a>, our menu is carefully prepared by a trained nutritionist and does not include junk food.
