Adults are free to choose whether to eat meat or not, but this product must be present in children’s diets.
But what if the baby refuses to open his mouth when he sees a piece of meat in his spoon?
Let's figure out why the child turned into a "non-meat eater".
The child does not like the way the food looks
It is quite possible that the picky eater is confused by the color or consistency of the meat puree - in this case, try taking a jar from another manufacturer.
The child was forced to eat meat
As a result of such actions, children may develop an aversion to this taste, and sometimes even a gag reflex. Never use force: instead, turn to your creativity and gradually accustom them to meat, choosing a different type, and not the one with which such an embarrassment once occurred.
The child is repelled by the taste and smell
Indeed, lamb, rabbit and beef may seem specific. No need to insist - offer another type of meat.
The child does not know how to chew
If you give your child meat in pieces and he refuses it, make sure that he can chew well and has enough teeth for this. If not, hold off on the pieces and return to puree.
