What are progressive mealtimes?
|
Children thrive on routine, but when it comes to mealtimes, a fixed approach to food isn't always appetising.
Little ones might not be hungry or interested when set mealtimes roll around, and some early childhood education and care (ECEC) services remove the time pressure by offering progressive mealtimes, which allow children to eat when they're hungry and choose when they'd like to join the table.
Today, we learn how progressive mealtimes work in practice, and explore their possible benefits for children.
