Toddlers Need Meal Supervision, Says Dietitian ; Pullman Don't check the toddler off your supervisory list at mealtime just because he's learned how to use a spoon. Miss Inez Eckblad, Washington State college extension foods specialist, says if left to himself, the toddler from one to three is likely to select only the foods he can eat with a spoon or eat from his hand. That's because he's learning to: chew, and chews poorly compared to ' older. ' chil dren. If left to fend for himself, the mainstays of - his diet often are potatoes and gravy, bread and butter. This means that his fare is poor in protein and too rich in carbohydrates. - In' the. early years, Miss Eck blad points out, the child's need for 'protein is as great as during infancy. This is a period of changing body composition, though of slow growth as far as outward appearance is .con cerned. The muscles are growing far "more rapidly than the rest of t the body or should be,, if the child : gets enough protein in his food. One way to make it easier for toddlers to . eat meat, 'she says, is to cut up 'the meat in: bite- size pieces. ; Milk, of course, is another important source of pro tein. So, be sure the toddler drinks his full quota of a quart a day. Give him milk between meals. Make it easier for him to drink by serving it in a glass or haridleless cup so he can hold it in both hands. Children also like to pour their own. A small amount of milk in a small pitcher can help the toddler develop the self-serve habit, without much loss from spilling. . Other aids to a happy meal time for the small fry, Miss Eck blad says, are contained in Wash ington Extension Circular 210, We Like to Eat."
