Mostly it has been observed that kids get fed up with repetitive eatables that mothers serve as breakfast, either they avoid to have it or they don’t eat sufficiently. Kids hunger grows faster after seeing the good stuff; they need a variety of eatables to enjoy each day. Being a mother starts doing little experiments to make tasty and nutritious stuff for your little ones’, so they don’t need to look outside something to eat. Remember breakfast should be containing less oil to keep your child comparatively active. Don’t give your child over vitamin supplements.

Develop good habits among your kids: The most prominent thing to be adopted by each and every child is washing hands before any meal.

So, parents should try to make their kids aware of the benefits of washing hands. Even when your kids come back from playgrounds, encourage them to wash their hands and legs well. Secondly, tooth decay in kids is most common, inspire your kids to brush at least twice a day, first in the morning and second just before going to bed. Don’t let them walk and play barefooted.

Instead of playing video games for hours encourage your children to spare some time on physical outdoor games too.
