Explanation:

During early childhood kids often become grazers, eating small meals and snacking throughout the day instead of eating two or three large meals.

Grazing is a type of eating habits found mostly in early childhood whereby they consume, too often, little food( especially snacks) at a time. Although they might gain energy from snacking frequently, when a child is a grazer the following disadvantages about this eating personality are bound to occur:

- they miss out to develope the natural rhythm of becoming hungry, eating and then feeling full because of the frequent eating habits.
