• Sep-23, 2022

If you have a baby, you will basically prepare a dining chair, but at the beginning to use  the dining chair, the little guy is still very happy, but after a long time, have you noticed that the child can't sit still! What has actually happened? Today, we will decrypt:

Some babies cry as long as they sit in the dining chair, and they can calm down after a while, which is really a headache...
 Want to get out of the dining chair
Some babies want to climb out every time they sit on the dining chair, and dining chairs are generally quite high, which is really dangerous~
Why doesn't the baby want to sit in the dining chair?

Why can't the baby sit in the dining chair? In fact, most of them are due to the following reasons, and then look down:
1. uncomfortable
For example, if the back of the chair is too far back, the child will be uncomfortable; if the seat belt is buckled too tightly, it will increase the sense of restraint; if the plate is too forward, it will reduce the movement space;
These will make the baby feel disgusted with the dining chair, and want to leave the dining chair as soon as it is time to eat.
Countermeasures: If there are any of the above details, be sure to adjust the dining chair in time to make the baby sit comfortably.

2. The food is not delicious
If the food is not suitable, the baby is naturally reluctant to eat and wants to escape, so he will be restless in the dining chair.
Countermeasures: Babies love to eat light and delicious food. Everyone must choose fresh ingredients when making dishes. Use more cooking methods such as stewing and stir-frying to keep the original flavor of the ingredients, and use less frying, otherwise it will be easier to get angry. Don't put salt before the child is one year old, and put less salt after one year old. It is necessary to know that the light taste can highlight the taste of the food itself, and it is also more popular with the baby.

3. Eating and playing, the meal time is too long
Some parents let their babies eat and play at the same time, which leads to longer and longer eating time, and the baby eats slower and slower, thus forming a vicious circle. When the baby eats, he will become less active, more and more reluctant to eat, always trying to get out of the dining chair, and unable to finish the meal quietly.
Countermeasures: Don't let your baby develop the bad habit of playing while eating. It is recommended to control the meal time within 30 minutes. If your baby fails to finish the meal within 30 minutes, it should be considered that he is not hungry and do not extend the meal time indefinitely.
Don't be afraid of starving your child, because it's more important to develop good habits. Even if he doesn't finish his meal within 30 minutes, don't leave the meal on the table until he is hungry. This can help your baby recognize the concept of time between "one meal" and "next meal".

4. The dining environment is too tempting
Babies are very curious and are often attracted to the things around them. Therefore, everyone should create a good dining environment for him. How can a baby be quiet if a cartoon is playing during the meal, or someone else is teasing the baby, or a family member is chatting next to him?
Countermeasures: It is very important to provide your baby with a quiet dining environment so that he can concentrate on eating. It is recommended that when your baby eats, let other people move to other rooms, put away your baby's toys, and play with them after he finishes eating.
