How to teach a child to eat their own

I have three children. When the second son was born, the eldest was only 1 year and 3 months. I fed him with a spoon, and sometimes it was not easy, since it is often necessary to feed the children at the same time. But it was necessary and very eat. So I had an idea how best to organize our comfortable breakfast, lunch and dinner.

How to Teach Your Baby to Feed Themselves

The eldest son Andrew for about a month showed an active interest in cutlery. And the next morning I set him a bowl of porridge and put it next to a spoon. Son is very surprised and even delighted - finally! I sat next to him, and by example, began to show how to use a spoon. I am gaining porridge tray spoon to his mouth.

Of course Andrew was still small, and more carried on a plate with a spoon, but something nevertheless fell into my mouth, I had breakfast quietly and peacefully on my lap slept little Vanya, after eating enough mother's milk.

Each time, Andrew turned to gain food better and better, and after 1.5 months, he completely mastered this skill.

Exactly a year my second son refused to order to be fed. Few doubt, I still gave him a spoon. Ivan has been easier to learn to eat, because the example of my older brother and always before his eyes. As a result, in 1 year and 1 month child has learned to eat, and the first and second!

Now my pearls, Nastya is 1 year old and 4 months, and already 2 months it eats itself.

Of course, kids at that age are spoiled, and I often have to wipe the floor in the kitchen after a meal, but the happy faces of children self-worth.

There are several points on which I would like to write more:

I gave the baby plate and spoon and watched;

If typing in a spoonful of food turned out not very good (especially at the beginning of schooling), I took his hand with a spoon in his movement and showed - scoops up with him;

Since the beginning of my training, I stopped to feed the baby with a spoon, that is, the kid was counting only on themselves. Naturally, in the early to accustom little that gets in your mouth, but then we rescued a bottle or a mixture of the chest.

teaching kids how to eat on their own

Some mothers and grandmothers give the child a spoon, and at this time do feed it to another. I think this is not a good idea, since the child is not just familiar with the new device, but get used to play with him. And we have a completely different purpose.

What not to do:

Do not feed your baby the second spoon;

Do not include cartoons while eating;

And, perhaps most importantly, if the baby does not work, never takes his spoon with the aim to fill it with the most!

By the way, when my middle son Ivan learned to eat alone, grandmother happened took up his spoon and finish feeding him herself. And then he just refused to eat up what was left on the plate - a principled kid.

So, all my suns learned to eat themselves peacefully and happily, and what you want!

having a jar of nutella next to you isn't really helping if you want to do things.

The nutella distracts me.
