Ang healthy eating habits ay mahalagang masimulan nang maaga

By two years of age, established na ang dietary patterns ng mga bata, at mananatili ito hanggang sa kanilang early years.  Ang hilig ng mga bata sa iba’t ibang food choices ay maaring madala hanggang sa paglaki. Ang first 2 years ng pagkabata ay mahalaga dahil sa panahong ito ay maaaring turuan ang iyong anak mag-establish ng kaniyang eating patterns.
