Hello all, my 2.5yrs old toddler is a picky eater.she loves golden morn,bread with honey,jollof rice,fried eggs ,smoked fish and fried potatoes,she eats well at school but at home all she wants is golden morn,are there better cereals for kids as I want to stop the golden morn.I think it causes constipation for her,bowel movement is like 3-4 days she doesn't like beans but at times takes moin moin or akara.,once in a while,her brother eats well and he's chubby.Thanks for your kind input |

I thought golden morn are for kids that are 3yrs and above. Just give her the other food she likes and don't forget to blend some fruits. 1 Like |

abhim: You main concern should not be making her gain weight but rather make her eat healthy. Stop buying golden morn and start introducing other healthy foods to her diet. She may cry for golden morn at first but with time she will get over it. Start making nice meals like marshed potatoes and mince or spaghetti and minces....maybe add carrots and peas too, most children i know love it! 1 Like |

Don't fatten your kid. You will be paving the way for teenage obesity. If you can get her to eat all those things you listed there that she likes (apart from golden morn), then she's good. Healthy eating is key. Not how much. Even the producers of golden morn warn you on the package that it's not for kids under age 3. Maybe that's why it gets her constipated. Get veggies into her jollof rice since she likes jollof rice. Make a sauce with fish, crayfish or meat and let her use it for her fried potatoes as a source of protein. Does she like fruit? If she doesn't like to eat them straight, you can juice them yourself (not the store bought high fructose corn syrup laden juices). Home juice is better. And a small hand held juicer is very inexpensive. That way she gets her vitamins and minerals. You could let her eat the veggies like carrots and green beans with a teaspoon of peanut butter. You can also make a sauce out of green leafy veggies like ugu and some kind of protein. let her eat it like that or with any other thing she likes. Give her what she likes (not golden morn until she's 3) as long as there are carbs, proteins and good fat in them. Vits. and mins. are packed in fruits and veggies so use some of the tricks above to incorporate them into her diet and she'll be alright. Chubby babies are so 2000 and late. Healthy babies are the in-thing now. 2 Likes 1 Share |
