Let your kids pick first! Take your kids grocery shopping and let them pick out fruits and veggies at the store. This also helps build a healthy habit of learning to buy and pick fresh produce. 2、让您的孩子帮助准备饭菜 通常当孩子们帮忙准备饭菜的时候,他们会很兴奋于认识食物和品尝食物。让他们自己动手加食材、摘菜、或者帮忙搅拌食物。 2. Have your child help you prepare meals Children learn about food and get excited about tasting food when they help make meals. Let them add ingredients, scrub veggies, or help stir food. 3. 给孩子提供健康的选择 与其问“你想不想在晚餐吃西兰花啊?”,不如问“你晚饭想吃西兰花还是菜花啊?” 3. Offer choice between healthy options Rather than ask, “do you want broccoli for dinner?” ask “which would you like for dinner, broccoli or cauliflower?” 4、在共进晚餐时享受晚餐时光 在晚餐时讨论令人快乐的事情。如果在晚餐时争论的话,您的孩子可能会对食物培养出一种不健康的情绪。 4. Enjoy each other while eating family meals together Always sit at a dining table during meal times and talk about fun and happy things. If meals are times for family arguments, your child may learn unhealthy attitudes toward food. 5.家长自己先品尝新食物 向孩子描述食物的口感、质地、味道。 要记住一点:您的孩子的饮食习惯是不会一下子就改变的—但是每天一点点小改变会促成孩子一生的健康饮食习惯。 5. Be a good role model Try various foods yourself. Describe their taste, texture, and smell to you child. If you seem excited about trying new things, they will get excited too. 6.需要适当的饥饿感 饭前的饥饿感完全是正常的,并且饥饿感也不应该成为吃垃圾食品的借口。 用餐前一定的饥饿感,能让孩子更好好吃饭,帮助孩子解决挑食问题,同时也能避免在下一餐之前再饿到自己。研究表明,在正餐前,有一定饥饿感的孩子,在吃饭时表现得更好,也更愿意尝试不同的菜。 6. Hunger is OK It is perfectly normal (and expected) to be hungry before meal times and hunger is never an excuse for negative attitudes about food or eating junk food. Normal hunger at meal times encourages kids to eat whatever is served and to eat enough to avoid being hungry too much in advance of the next meal. Children who are at least slightly hungry tend to be happier and more adventurous eaters at meal times. 7. 家长不要有孩子一定不爱吃某些食物的偏见 大人们总是会对孩子们的饮食习惯有一些偏见,比如会觉得小孩子们都爱吃炸鸡块,零食,这样的偏见会在潜意识里阻碍家长们在日常饮食中给孩子引入更多的食物选择。 家长们需要了解,孩子饮食习惯的改善不会发生在一夜之间,但是每天一点点的努力一定会帮助孩子建立起健康饮食习惯的生活方式。 7. Parents should not assume that kids won’t eat or won’t like certain foods There is a perception that foods like chicken nuggets, and packaged snacks are the foods of choice for kids, and some parents are hesitant to introduce foods that they fear kids won’t like.
