Behaviors and Emotions Around Eating
Encourage mindful eating—are you actually hungry?
How do you know you are hungry?
Address typical triggers for eating. Eating when fighting
Eating when bored
Eating when sad, angry, or lonely Eating with Television
Most common solution= redirect to alternative activities to eating (e.g. go for a walk, play with a friend, do a craft)
Portion Sizes
(could be combined with label reading)
Use balanced plate tool—consider giving out a physical example. (Picture of a plate with appropriate portions.)
Sugary Beverages Consider using tools to review beverages, sports drinks, juices, teas—sugar bottle display? Consider graph depicting recommended sugar limits compared with amount in beverage.
Combine with discussions about calcium, milk, and water

Parenting Positive reinforcement is more powerful then punishments for behavior change. Target a high ratio of praise to commands/criticism.
Practice this skill at office or with peers.
Make comments specific, immediate, and genuine.
Start small – target 1- 3 behaviors for change initially.
Physical praise works as well (high fives, stickers, ect).
Be prepared for resistance. Kids test limits or act out to see if parents mean what they said. Consistency pays off as an individual caregiver and between caregivers.
