Toddler Meal Ideas

c4162c4162
in Attachment Parenting

What is the name of the website that is along the lines of wholesomebabyfood.com, but for toddlers?

I need to get (structured) ideas on what/how much/when to feed my 1 y/o. And right now I am too sleep deprived to come up with ideas on my own.

I know ideally I should feed him whatever I eat, but I am not eating well/often right now (working on that)

 

Thanks in advance

    Not sure if that's what you're meaning, but I found a lot of good stuff there.

    Are you having meals with your child? Your comment that you're not eating often concerns me, both because you need to take care of yourself, but also because a lot of a child's relationship with food is learned from their parents. I know it's not realistic to feed your child what you're having all the time and that you might not even be hungry for a big meal at the same times your child wants to have one, but I always try to sit down at the table with DD with at least something in front of me, so that we're sharing the experience.

    I also find that DD usually eats better when we are eating with her - she is not the focus of the activity, and tends to concentrate on eating, rather than playing.

    I know she doesn't eat as well when she stays with MIL, and I think this is the main reason - MIL doesn't eat when DD eats, so it's like DD is the show, make sense?

    I just wanted to give you a suggestion that really helps us when we are busy and that DD loved at that age. Roasts, in the crockpot. I know you don't have much time but a piece of meat/pork/chicken, some pre-washed baby carrots. pre-washed and cut celery, a few baby potatos, and some seasoning or broth go a long way in our house. DD always did really well with the soft meat and veggies at that age. If you have a Trader Joes near you they sell frozen microwave brown rice. I like that with little effort and little mess you can provide a protein, veggies, and a whole grain.
