mealtime

How to get your toddler to eat.

Mealtime. A dreaded word for many parents of toddlers (and preschoolers). I remember those days well: bickering, crying, yelling…and that was just me. I slaved all day in the kitchen pouring things out of cans and boxes and this kid is gonna sit there and tell me he’s not hungry after hounding me for an hour before dinner for a cookie?! Ugh, it was awful. Eventually, I found some strategies that worked and things improved. As a home visitor with families for the last twenty years, I’ve learned even MORE strategies to help improve mealtimes (I wish I had know then what I know now!) and I’m sharing them in this weeks video.

Have you tried any of these strategies? Did they work? Where are your struggles? Or maybe you have some strategies you’d like to share with other parents! If so, drop them in the comments. Let’s spread the love so we can all eat a hot meal with our kids at the same time.
