Sometimes we want to satisfy the tastes of our children when it comes to eating and we are not aware of the importance of good nutrition for their health and intellectual development.

It is not just about giving the child what he likes to eat, or about stopping trying different techniques so he can eat healthy foods, since a healthy diet rich in vitamins will ensure that they enjoy good health, that they have good energy in any activity they do, in addition to helping them to perform better at an educational level.
