Help Your Child Eat Right

By the time your child is a year old, his or her digestive processes are nearly the same as an adult's so it's time to introduce new foods. While the preschooler may adapt the three-meals-a-day schedule of other family members, his or her appetite may vary from day to day. At times, you can't keep your child away from the refrigerator while on certain occasions, it may seem that he or she doesn't eat enough to keep an ant alive.
