Why the language we use about food and eating matters.
What should we talk about at mealtime?
How to teach children about health and nutrition.
Our culture of feeding is very short-term focused and quick to offer advice on WHAT to feed, rather than on HOW or WHY.
There is plenty of advice out there about how much protein or how many green vegetables kids should be eating to thrive. What parents seem to be missing is information WHY children refuse to eat certain foods and HOW to help them learn to accept them.
You don’t need to be a nutritionist to master the fundamentals of feeding your child – you just need an effective feeding strategy. There is a way to make feeding easier, more rewarding and effective – it all starts with having a long-term view.
If you focus on the short-term strategy children
may not regulate intake well (eating too much or too little)
might associate food and eating with negative feelings or rewards.
What we really want is for them to see eating as enjoyable, be able to self-regulate their intake and enjoy the social aspect of eating at the table.
Food is the aspect of feeding that is most talked about but it is also filled with a lot of confusion and misunderstanding. How much nutritional knowledge do we need to have to feed our children well? Based on research and my own experience, most parents know that children need fruit and vegetables, protein, whole grains, dairy products and fats to be healthy. I have never spoken with a parent who thinks their kids will thrive on candy floss. No one believes doughnuts are better than blueberries.
Our goal is not to eliminate “naughty” or “unhealthy” foods that are everywhere but to teach our kids the art of balance. I believe that all foods are great, play an important role in our lives and can fit into a healthy diet.
Understanding your child’s nutritional needs is vital, but so is navigating the not-so-good stuff children are naturally drawn to. The HOW and WHY of feeding will help you make sure your children have a varied, balanced diet but also a healthy relationship with food and are able to trust their own bodies.
HOW you feed your child is extremely powerful. Your attitudes, your actions and the structure of mealtimes influences how your child views food, eating and his or her own self. HOW you feed is a key to preventing many childhood eating problems, including obesity, picky eating, dysfunctional attitude to food and eating disorders.
I created this online course because I want you to experience the amazing feeling of relief when you realise you can stop worrying about mealtimes and start enjoying them together as a family.
