Every day in clinic, parents sigh: “Doctor saab, my child just doesn’t eat!” 😅
The truth? Children are much smarter eaters than we think. They don’t count calories, they eat by instinct.
Here’s the golden rule: quality over quantity.
One bowl of dal–chawal + sabzi is better than chasing them with 10 bites of biscuits.
Don’t worry if they skip a meal—appetite comes in waves. Some days they eat like a tiger, some days like a bird. 🐯🐦
✨ Small hacks that help:
Keep meals short (20–25 mins). Don’t drag.
Offer family food, not “special” food every time.
Make it fun – colorful thali, finger foods, or even a picnic on the balcony.
Relax. Children grow more from your love and laughter than from an extra spoon of dal. 💕
