Module 1: Creating Positive Mealtime Attitudes Cooking Matters EXTRA for Center-Based Child Care Professionals Module 1: Creating Positive Mealtime Attitudes

Feeding Kids Well Takes Teamwork! A new teacher started sitting at Amy’s meal table this week. She believes that all children must take and eat at least 3 bites of everything before they can leave the table. The former teacher let the kids decide what to serve themselves and eat. What is Amy thinking now?

Feeding Kids Well Takes Teamwork! The children in this classroom are learning that fruits and vegetables make great snacks. Every day this week, the afternoon snack has been milk and graham crackers. What message are the kids getting?

Stages of Feeding: Infant Amazing Progress in Year One: Moves from a milk-based diet to table food What message does an infant get if she’s hungry and no one feeds her? …or if she’s full but caregivers keep shoving the nipple into her mouth and try to get her to eat more? Not all older infants want to be fed! Stand back and enjoy the show! (But keep them safe.)

Stages of Feeding: Toddler Fill in the blanks: A toddler’s favorite word is _ _. What’s required now: PATIENCE PERSISTENCE (keep offering new foods—it may take 10-15 exposures before she’ll eat them!) LIMITS on panhandling, poor behavior at the table THE RIGHT TOOLS for self- feeding Ideas for making turkey & cheese tacos more toddler-friendly?

Stages of Feeding: Preschooler What happens when you seat a kid who won’t eat salad between 2 kids who LOVE salad? Industrious preschoolers like cooking and helping with meal time chores!

Stages of Feeding: School-Aged Child In your experience: What are their friends eating? What food advertisements are they seeing on television? How much time do they spend engaged in physical activity? These kids can often buy their own food – help them learn to make good choices!

What Do Children Learn About Eating From You? If this teacher was eating a fast food meal out of a bag instead of the school lunch…. …what message would that send to the kids?

Children Imitate Others Parents Caregivers Siblings Relatives Other children Celebrities and cartoon heroes Model the behaviors and attitudes you want children to follow. They are watching you!

What Do Children Learn About Eating From You? What, when, and where to eat and drink How to prepare food How to serve food Mealtime behavior Attitudes about food

Want Kids to Reach for Healthy Foods? Make sure healthy foods are in reach! Let kids learn by choosing for themselves which foods to take and how much to eat

Rituals Are Comforting Strengthen personal bonds Create a sense of belonging Remind people of their ties to history and tradition Reinforce shared values

The Emotional Value of Rituals Rituals are: Symbolic Creative Related to feelings and memories

Mealtime Rituals Lead to Healthy Behaviors Help kids develop healthy food habits Encourage positive mealtime behaviors
