If you’re a parent, you know that younger children can be fussy eaters and it makes it very difficult to keep up with their nutritional intake.

If you’re a parent to a growing toddler, here a few tips that will help you deal with their nutritional intake.

Breakfast healthy
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so make sure your child never skips breakfast. Introducing them with fruits, milk, cereals, supplements during this time is the best way to go about it. Keeping it light but healthy is a good way to start the day.

Mealtimes
Keeping mealtime fixed for your child is important. It helps to not only inculcate discipline but also helps the body to maintain its health. Feeding the child, again and again, is just as bad as not feeding them for a longer duration. Therefore, a fixed mealtime is important.

A small shift to healthier foods
If your child isn’t very comfortable when introduced to new foods, try to incorporate new food in a slow manner. Introducing a new food along with their daily food is a good way to go about it.

Fruits and vegetables
Incorporating fruits and vegetables is important as it provides the most nutrition that a child needs growing up. It’s also a very good alternative to snacks and chips.
