This will limit the child to explore more food variety. The tip here is to try and modify the new food and present it using different cooking methods. Parents should never give up trying to introduce new healthy food to their children even if they reject it the first time.<br \/>\u00a0<\/li><li><strong>Let the kids serve themselves and learn food preparation.<\/strong>\u00a0The Nutrition Society of Malaysia encourage parents to cook together with their children. Food experts encourage parents to bring their children grocery-shopping as well. Thus, parents can teach their children how to read nutrition labels and understand better the healthy ingredients from different food groups.<\/li><\/ol><p><br \/>Chef Mahmor Abas from Columbia Asia Hospital &#8211; Iskandar Puteri presents a simple dish that can be prepared by kids under parental guidance and supervision.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d5ababf elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"d5ababf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.23.0 - 15-07-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"285\" height=\"408\" src=\"https:\/\/stagingsea.columbiaasia.com\/vietnam\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/20160630_Chef-Mahmor_01-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-59953\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stagingsea.columbiaasia.com\/vietnam\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/20160630_Chef-Mahmor_01-1.jpg 285w, https:\/\/stagingsea.columbiaasia.com\/vietnam\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/20160630_Chef-Mahmor_01-1-210x300.jpg 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 285px) 100vw, 285px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bb9b5e8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"bb9b5e8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.23.0 - 15-07-2024 *\/\n.elementor-column .elementor-spacer-inner{height:var(--spacer-size)}.e-con{--container-widget-width:100%}.e-con-inner>.elementor-widget-spacer,.e-con>.elementor-widget-spacer{width:var(--container-widget-width,var(--spacer-size));--align-self:var(--container-widget-align-self,initial);--flex-shrink:0}.e-con-inner>.elementor-widget-spacer>.elementor-widget-container,.e-con>.elementor-widget-spacer>.elementor-widget-container{height:100%;width:100%}.e-con-inner>.elementor-widget-spacer>.elementor-widget-container>.elementor-spacer,.e-con>.elementor-widget-spacer>.elementor-widget-container>.elementor-spacer{height:100%}.e-con-inner>.elementor-widget-spacer>.elementor-widget-container>.elementor-spacer>.elementor-spacer-inner,.e-con>.elementor-widget-spacer>.elementor-widget-container>.elementor-spacer>.elementor-spacer-inner{height:var(--container-widget-height,var(--spacer-size))}.e-con-inner>.elementor-widget-spacer.elementor-widget-empty,.e-con>.elementor-widget-spacer.elementor-widget-empty{position:relative;min-height:22px;min-width:22px}.e-con-inner>.elementor-widget-spacer.elementor-widget-empty .elementor-widget-empty-icon,.e-con>.elementor-widget-spacer.elementor-widget-empty .elementor-widget-empty-icon{position:absolute;top:0;bottom:0;left:0;right:0;margin:auto;padding:0;width:22px;height:22px}<\/style>\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a3f0b9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1a3f0b9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Q: Share with us your experience in cooking with children.<br \/>Chef Mahmor:<\/strong>\u00a0From my tenure in the hotel industry, I have experience participating in kids cooking classes whereby we teach children how to prepare simple dishes.
