How to make your fussy child eat?
Simple teach the song -
Dal Roti Khao Prabhu ke Gun Gao. ( Eat Dal-Roti and praise Lord)

As usual, I was helpless before my daughter...She refused to eat normal dal – roti meal.
Out of desperation, I switched on this amazing song on YouTube- Dal Roti Khao Prabhu ke Gun Gao.. And she started laughing while watching that song...
Why is she dancing like that on this song?? (ती अशी का नाचते आहे गाण्यावर?)
Then suddenly she saw few poor people...
ज्यांना खायला मिळत नाही त्यांना ते खायला देत आहेत..
(Food is being given to those who don’t get enough to eat )
She realized this on her own...
And watching the entire song..she finished eating lunch with my hands!
My husband and I were raised to respect food and be grateful for the food we eat. We have tried every means to convince her to eat stuff on her plate without cribbing. This may be too much to comprehend for her little mind. But we both are firm on one point instead of making food stuffs of her liking every day, let her eat dal-roti-subji-chawal on most days.
This path is very rough, as we have many arguments at meal times. But we feel there is no substitute to simple meal. Because it keeps us healthy. We also don’t give her cold drinks. Fast food is limited to maximum twice Or thrice a week. Results are visible. We had to visit doctor just once from last three years!
My only dream is that with some magic, she becomes like her Father eating every small food particle on the plate... Makes plate so much clean after eating that one has a doubt if it has been recently washed!
True example of mindful eating and showing food gratitude!
