Following the principles of proper nutrition is important for maintaining and strengthening health. Unfortunately, not every child understands this.
Many boys and girls like chips, sweets and fizzy drinks. But they are not eager to include vegetables and cereals in their diet.
Children may explain their decision by saying that broccoli, Brussels sprouts and celery are not the tastiest foods.
How can you teach your child to eat healthy? You should never force your child to eat something he doesn't want.
But you can cheat. There is one interesting psychological trick that allows you to achieve the desired result without pressure and persuasion.
What should parents do?
You need to put healthy food on your plate that the child finds tasteless. You shouldn't offer this food to the baby yet.
It's good if the child sees this product for the first time. In this case, he will probably ask: "Can I try it too?"
Parents should respond with, "No, this is food for adults."
After such a statement, the interested child will probably begin to persuade mom and dad to share the broccoli or celery.
At first, you have to refuse. And then "make a concession": "Okay, you can, but only a little bit."
Even if the child does not like the taste of the vegetable, over time he will try it. And, perhaps, he will love such food.
