  ABSTRACT: Early childhood is a crucial period for comprehensive physical and mental development, and it is also the best stage for cultivating good eating habits. Only by firmly grasping the educational opportunities during this period can we truly develop proper eating behaviour in young children. Based on this, this study will use literature, observation and interview methods to analyse three aspects of young children’s eating speed, picky and partial eating behaviour and snack preference, using three young children and their mothers as research subjects. Finally, the researcher makes several educational suggestions to correct the partial eating, picky eating and poor eating behaviour of young children. It is expected that adults can establish different eating methods to guide preschool children’s behaviour when teaching them about eating behaviour, so that they can develop good and healthy eating habits from an early age.
