Your 1-Year-Old Toddler: Week 33 Menu
Hey there, fellow parent! As your little one navigates the world at this age, they sure do love putting all sorts of things in their mouths. You’d think they’d be eager to brush those tiny teeth, right? Well, not quite! Getting your toddler excited about dental hygiene can be a challenge, but it can also be fun!
Transforming tooth brushing into a game can make a world of difference. Try playing a catchy song while you brush, or brush your teeth together so they can mimic you. A cartoon-themed electric toothbrush can add a bit of excitement, and don’t forget the joy of spitting in the sink! If you provide your child with a special stool to reach the sink, they may feel more involved and enthusiastic about brushing.
To help prevent cavities, consider sticking with water in their sippy cup throughout the day. Save snacks, juice, and milk for meal times. Remember, every time food is consumed, acids are produced in their mouths to aid digestion, which can wear down tooth enamel and lead to cavities.
Here’s a friendly reminder: life can get hectic! Sometimes you might forget to brush your kiddo’s teeth, or a quick dinner might consist of a fast-food treat. It’s all about doing your best and showering your child with love, even on those chaotic days.
