Hello!

I have a 12 month old that throws his food. I'm wondering what the best approach is for this. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Id love to know some tips too!!
I have three toddlers and they all throw food and their drinks. One of them is mine haha.
It seems if I say "no throwing food" it almost makes them want to do it more.
What I do is just give them one or two bites at a time. That way they don't have much to throw, but I wish I could just stop the behavior!

If they aren't hungry the meal is over.

Just like in the other food thread, https://www.daycare.com/forum/showthread.php?t=83754, give what they will eat and when eating time is up, or they are done eating, that's it.

I removed his tray and then ended up trying to feed him myself...he only lasted 5 bites.
Thanks for the advice...sometimes it helps to know if I'm doing things right
