: Hi Parents,

: I have a 2 years old boy who does not know how to munch food. He has no problem eating porridge or any other food that does not require munching/chewing. However, any food that requires munching before swallowing, he is at a lost. Basically he will just spit out the food instead of chewing them and swallowing them.

: Has anyone faced the same problem before? Or does anyone has any suggestion on how to train him to munch?

: Thank you very much.

: Regards,
: Concerned Mum

Could he have teeth coming in and it hurts to chew??
