Many of the habits your toddler forms around food will be continued through their childhood and adulthood. Learning to stop eating when they’re full comes from you as a parent knowing about responsive feeding. Enjoying food without relying on sugar and salt develops good practices for a lifetime, and will help reduce the risk of your child becoming obese or picking up other health problems. Eating can be such an enjoyable time, and thoughtful eating can affect many areas of your child’s life.
