Small demanders or diverse food for kids
It is completely normal, if your kid has suddenly decided that he or she hates everything that you did not give him for a dinner - even the food, which he or she adored yesterday. Other extreme is also frequent - when your kid insists on the same food: Mum, give me again and again kefir and from same bottle. And it proceeds until the kid does not begin to hate kefir and starts to love porridge.
Experts say that the reason of such behavior is fear of new sensations. It is just what our civilization has developed for protection during evolution. You simply do not try what you have not tried earlier. Kiddies simply love everything that they have already tried earlier - it concerns daily habits, as going to bed, it concerns food and meal. Kids love things which they have tried or tasted earlier.
Other reason why small demanders do not want to eat - is a postulate «only try to force me do it». Kids put to the test your authority.
It may seem that the kid just does not have patience to sit on one place and to eat up a breakfast. What to do? Experts say that the best way is to create similarity of routine for meal. Try to remove all distracting things, as the TV, radio and pets.
