3-Year Handout 

Chad Hermann 

Mealtime Communications should Director be a pleasant time for the family. Your child should be completely feeding himself now. 

It’s common for children this age to be picky eaters, and some days may eat less than others. This is OK. 

Just be sure the child is eating healthy, nutritious food, and not filling up on junk food. Offer your child 

healthy foods, and let him decide how much he wants to eat. Don’t give your child junk food “just so 

he’ll have something to eat.” Remember, it’s the child’s job to know how much he needs to eat, and the 

parents’ job to be sure he eats the right kinds of things.

DENTAL June 10, CARE 2010 

As your child gets new teeth, be sure to clean them twice a day. If your child is able to spit out the

Chad Hermann 

Out-of-home Communications experiences, Director such as nursery school and playgroups, are good opportunities to learn and 

gain experience. 

These are opportunities for children to learn to separate from parents and interact with other children.
