[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. Setting up a timer sounds a great idea. How many mins should I set for each meal? My older one can finish his meal in 5 mins, and toddler can finish her meal like 30 mins because she plays & eats at the same time. She plays with spoon & finger food. I spoon feed her sometimes as well. [/quote] I promise you I’m not being snarky but unless your child has special needs you’re 18 month old does not need to be spoonfed. I recognize that as parents we do things to assist but in your case this might not be helping your 18 month old. In terms of a time to eat, start by meeting halfway and setting a 15 minute timer.
