DS is almost 2 and definitely at the 'pushing boundaries' stage. We bought him a wee table and chairs after Christmas to have his meals at in the kitchen and, for the most part, he likes it.
Breakfast and lunch are no problem. I'm not saying he sits perfectly and eats everything, he's prone to dancing around and trying to stand on the chair, but generally he will eat there happily.
Tea time seems a different matter. He will not sit to have his meal, runs away and generally misbehaves. If, however, I were to take his plate through to the living room where his nursery rhymes are on, he will mostly clear his plate.
I've done this a couple of times just to ensure he's eaten something but I'm really wary of this becoming habit for him so that he'll only eat in front of the tv.
Does anyone have any tips? If he won't eat in the kitchen should I just let him go hungry? Even if DH and/or I eat with him, it doesn't seem to make any difference.
Thank you!
