Table of Contents
1. Raise a healthy child who is a joy to feed
You can have enjoyable, harmonious meals. Your child can be healthy, feel good about eating, and behave well around food.
2. Follow the division of responsibility
To raise a healthy child who eats and grows well, do your jobs with feeding and parenting, then trust your child to do her jobs with eating, moving, and growing.
3. Understand your child’s development
Consider the toddler, the preschooler, and the school-age child. Being able to recognize stages in development and understand temperament lets you trust and enjoy your child and parent in the best way.
4. How to feed your child
Have family-friendly meals and sit-down snacks. The toddler’s eating is quirky, the preschooler’s eating is surprising, and the school-age child’s eating skills start to show. Look forward to greater mealtime tranquility as your child gets older.
5. What to feed your family
You are now feeding a family and including your child in family meals. You are no longer just feeding your child.
6. Solve feeding problems
Consider the picky eater, the child who doesn’t eat meals and then begs for food, the large child, the small child, the child who doesn’t eat much, the child who doesn’t eat vegetables or drink milk, or the child with special needs.
7. What you have learned
Feeding is parenting in all ways. You have to do your jobs, but then you have to let go. Throughout the growing-up years, maintain a division of responsibility in feeding.
Dedication: This booklet is dedicated to you, the parent, and all the caring adults who are helping feed your child with love and good sense.
