2 cents thoughts - The battle of feeding


Nowadays toddler so smart and naughty. Need to squeeze brain juice during meal time to feed my 1 year old without presence of toys or TV. She loves to eat fruits, biscuit and water and have strategy that she get it.

Round 1
one hand holding the spoon with food and the other hand with a fork with fruit. While she open her month for the fruit quickly feed her with food - She refuses to open month after a few attempt.

Round 2
Feed with water on the same spoon - she open her month so small that only water can seep through.

Round 3
Put some biscuit / raisin / fruit on the food. To avoid she "addict to the treats", for some serving, I go without them - She scrutinise the spoon before opening the golden month

In the end my battle was lost and need treats every spoonful. There is the last strategy to use but will only use when she is older - to let her go hungy :)
