Toddler Food Battle Workshop

Attended this workshop conducted by a nutritionist from Singapore. It was a small group session with only 8 mummies. The workshop provides some insights for me to view this toddler feeding & eating issue in a new perspective. I am always very conscious about the boys' food intake, the amount of carbo, greens, sugar, salt, fruits etc daily. But the nutrionist shared with us to look at this whole dietary nutrients thing in a weekly basis rather than daily, and i realised through this, i can be more creative in preparing their meals! YEAH!

And what's more, Zq has been rather demanding recently in requesting the food he wants for lunch or dinner. He will insist to have THAT food to be served on the table if he requested it earlier on. And he always classify the noodles as: 面条,大面,大大面。。。Beat me! I'm clueless on this, normally cook him spaghetti, linguine, mee sua, buckwheat noodle, alphabet pasta, macaroni.. But im not sure which fall under what categories. Sometimes he get upset and told me "不是这个,是大大面!” No choice, i have to coax him to finish that bowl of noodle and promised to cook that 大大面 tomorrow (and trying my luck again!) :p

Well, I think the most important pointer that i learnt through this workshop is where to get reliable organic products and milk for my boys! And the benefit of eating organic is reinforced again, i guess i have to relook and plan for the boys meals for more organic stuff!
