3. Vegetables
Colorful vegetables will make a healthy addition to your toddler’s diet. Do not serve raw veggies to your baby. Steam the vegetables until tender and cut them into small pieces to prevent choking. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), over half of the choking episodes in children occur due to food. So ensure to prepare veggies in age-appropriate forms. Season them with minimal salt and pepper and serve. Include at least one vitamin-C-rich veggie in your baby’s diet. Veggie sticks can also help soothe teething babies.
4. Juice
Juices are an interesting addition to your toddler’s healthy diet regimen. If you are thinking of serving juice to your baby, then choose 100% juice to avoid preservatives and added sugar. Limit the serving to not more than 6 ounces a day.
