How I discipline my child with these posters

Part 1

We started weaning at 6.5 month, since then  we have a family meals at every single day. What Happened next is my son started getting interested in food more n more, he would be so curious to know what, why n how we are eating, so overall starting of weaning went very well.

Part 2

After few months my son started crawling. He is a super active kid. It was getting difficult for me to keep him at one place every time for the food.

He would cry unconsolably if stopped from what ever he is doing to have food.

He started refusing it all. He hated eating for few days.

What I did next was I started keeping him on the kitchen platform while cooking. So that he can see whatever I am doing. He got interested in cutting veggies, playing with dough, banging kitchen utensils. That was the place where I would tell him to toy and feel all veggies, fruits.

While eating I would tell him the ingredients in his food that he has seen few minutes ago in the kitchen.

I am sure he didn't understand whatever I told of course, as he was very small, but it worked!!!

Even on the day's I didn't put him on platform, he ate well.

Part 3

Again the denial for food phase came, as he started walking by then.

He would not play with toys, books nothing.

As he was understanding things a bit, I used to tell him that he should not do this. I tried every  recepie I knew, all possible food items I was done with. He was so attracted to the newly found talent 'walking', it was getting difficult.

Here babywearing came to my help. I would take him in a carrier, sit or stand in the balcony. Show him things n feed.

Tada.....it worked. It worked when he was sick, when he was teething.

Part 4

Again!!!!

He got sick for a while n just stopped eating anything. Even after recovering he started lacking the interest in food.

I was running out of ideas.. but this time I was so sure that I can deal with this as I had done before!!

So I came up with this new thing... Sticking posters of daily activities everywhere, at Proper places!!!!

I stickeda picture of a toddler doing potty on the toilet door. Helping poster in the kitchen and sleeping toddler, i stocked in the bedroom door!!

It worked!! N it's working!!

Whenever I want him to do something I will show him the pictures and tell him these are  your friends, they do things like this, you can follow them.

So now for me, it's like ..just show a picture and let him do it!!

Even for the potty training same thing happened...I initially he was very cooperative but then he would potty everywhere but toilet...this poster thing worked for that also!!! Now eating and pottying are the fun plays for us!!!( Don't know till when.. better I would come up with another idea soon!!)
