Teaching Your Child to Eat Healthy

Kids easily get hooked on junked food, and we can see why. Who doesn’t like a good bag of potato chips every now and then? While snacking junk food isn’t bad, too much of it can negatively affect your child’s overall development.

Creative Beginnings is here to share a few handy tips you can use to improve your child’s diet:

  • Focus on their overall diet instead of specific food. Choose food that is as close to its natural form as possible.
  • Be a role model. We encourage healthy eating here at our child development center, but as a parent, your toddler will be more inclined to follow your example.
  • Use familiar fruits and greens. Your toddler will have heard of certain vegetables and fruits from their day care in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. It’s easier to convince a child to eat something they’re already familiar with.
  • Get your kids involved. Allowing your kids to take part in making the grocery list and cooking the meals informs them of what ingredients are good for them and which ones to avoid or eat less of.
