DS is 3 in January and eats really well at nursery - all snacks, meals and pud. He also eats his lunch well at the weekends, but he won't sit down to a proper tea, preferring to eat a roll and raw carrots with a dip or something picky. He does have a snack after nursery of fruit or small bag of buttons, but even when he doesn't have a snack, he'll hardly touch his dinner.
His average day is this:
Breakfast: Yoghurt, fresh fruit, dry cereal and glass of milk (perhaps a biscuit if DH is on duty
)
10am Snack: more fruit
Lunch: Pasta / curry / shepherds pie etc + veg followed by a pudding
3pm Snack: more fruit or crudites.
4.30: fruit if he wants it
try and give him his dinner between 5.30 and 6 but normally take a couple of mouthfuls.
- water etc throughout the day.
I don't know whether or not to just go with the flow and give him a roll and carrots etc for tea or cut all snacks. The only thing is, that would mean cutting them out at nursery too which would be more difficult as it's very communal. He is certainly eating enough I think, and wonder if he just prefers to stock up in the day and graze.
Opinions welcome. Many thanks.
