Healthy Eating Strategy #3:
Establish regular meals and snack times beginning when your child is 9-12 months old!
A great way to start this off is by giving your child/children key words they need to understand the connection between hunger and eating. So for example, if your son shows he is hungry, you might say: "You're hungry, aren't you? Ok, it's time to eat!" By doing this, your child/children will be able to associate their feelings of hunger with the act of eating at regular times across the day.
