Healthy Eating for Toddlers

When your baby reaches 12 months old, they should be having 3 meals a day. They may also need 2 healthy weaning snacks in between.

Remember, they don’t need salt or sugar added to their food or cooking water. Children shouldn’t eat salty foods as it isn’t good for their kidneys and sugar can cause tooth decay.
