In a long time, such a question as the importance of proper baby food was not distributed. Such a science as dietology, even did not exist. The children's menu did not differ much from the adult. Babies already at two months old were given cabbage soup, potatoes, various vegetables. In today's world, moms are more knowledgeable about baby food. The knowledge of the characteristics of the child's organism today is much greater than in the old days. Very often, moms have a question, what is better to cook for dinner, that was both tasty and useful at the same time.
Features of a proper dinner
Assuming that during the day the baby, having consumed all the energy, gets a good appetite by the evening, young mothers pay an important attention to dinner, trying to feed their child as much as possible. Nutritionists do not share this point of view, since they believe that dinner should be in the first place useful. Let's consider some rules on this.
Evening food intake should carry a slight and inefficient character. The best option for dinner can be dishes from vegetables or fruits, cereals, such as porridge or any dairy products. It should be noted that such products as meat, eggs and fish are better to use in the first half of the day, before lunch. For dinner you prefer casseroles, light salads, all kinds of puddings, and also soufflé.
Dinner should be held two hours before bedtime, as food should be able to assimilate in the body. For kindergarten children, given the fact that a snack in kindergarten takes place about three to four hours, the most preferred time for dinner is six to seven in the evening. Also, it should be noted that the consumed liquid should be limited, a cup of milk or tea will be enough.
Before the beginning of sleep, the child can also drink a glass of milk and milk, which has only a positive effect on the floriculture. It should pay attention to the fact that it is permissible, from the point of view of nutritionists, to "snack" at a later time. Also, this option is most productive for children who adapt after the illness. Disapproving of such a moment as the eating of chocolates overeat. Do not eat foods such as chips or crackers. After all, there is no benefit to them, and such products can bring harm to the body.
Appetite breeds the appearance
In the case when the child refuses to eat and starts to be in love, one can resort to a method based on attracting attention.
For example, unusual design of food can play a role, as the everyday food will acquire an unusual form, thereby provoking interest in the child. For variety, it is possible to supplement the dish with various decorating elements. Potato puree can be turned into an unusual lock, or can be designed as a traffic light, where in the role of color can make a cucumber, yolk and carrots. To do it all is not at all difficult, but for the child it is very informative. So, the child will fall into a so-called fairy tale.
Products from minced meat, you can cook like a cookie, otformochki. Very original will be cutlets in the form of fish or asterisks. Varied eggs can turn into a chicken, instead of a scallop, which will have a piece of beet, and as a beak - a carrot. Kasha can be transformed into a sunflower or a flower, or a kolobok with eyes and a charming smile, using jam or syrup. Cutting a tomato in half, adding olives on top, it will turn into a beautiful ladybug, and from the cucumber will get a pretty crocodile. The kid will like any manifestation of your imagination.
Cognitive cooking
The child always needs to communicate with his mother, even when she is busy preparing dinner or dinner. You can also combine business with pleasure, as cooking can be turned into a wonderful cognitive game. For example, when you add certain ingredients to a dish, you need to follow certain instructions to make it delicious, so that the kid can learn the discipline, as he will follow your clear instructions. Also, when cooking together, you can teach your baby a score, for example, you need to add one or two-lined sugar. The child grasps such things on the fly. Develops and pettymotorika, for example, cooking dumplings with their own hands, or you can ask the child to pick up the rump.
Joint cooking also has a positive effect on the children's stock of words, which is expanding. Improved and logical thinking, perception, the ability to analytical thinking.
Dangerous and complex procedures, of course, to trust the child is unnecessary. But the elementary, like for example, cut molds from dough, or decorate the cake with a cream, decorate the greens with a salad the child will do with pleasure, feeling its importance.
