A good opportunity to learn to make independent decisions is provided during breakfast. Let your baby choose what he will eat, and then let him help you prepare breakfast. (Don't ask him to quickly and carefully spread butter or jam on bread or arrange slices of cheese and ham.) By doing this, he will feel more confident and feel a sense of ownership. Young children can also make sandwiches, beat eggs, chop herbs into dishes, as well as set the table, lay out napkins and arrange dishes.
