Transition:

Older Baby to Toddler

Your toddler's diet gradually

becomes like the rest of the family's. Eating with the family allows your toddler to see other family members enjoying the same foods.

Toddlers usually eat much

less than before because they are growing at a slower rate.

Average growth is three

times greater in the first year than in the second or third years. Even though toddlers move around much more, they may not need to eat as much as when they were younger."Parents are responsible for what the child is offered to eat and how it is presented, children are responsible for how much food they eat and whether they eat." - Ellyn Satter, family therapist and Registered Dietitian

Growing into Mealtimes

With more independence comes more self-feeding. Until your baby manages a spoon expect the use of fingers and a mess - newspaper or a plastic tablecloth under the chair can help with cleanup. Mealtimes can be one of the best times to test independence. It is normal for toddlers to have appetite changes or go on "food jags," when a toddler may eat only one food for several days. A toddler's appetite and tastes can change fairly quickly. A child may like a food one day and not another. If your child refuses a food, simply offer it again on another day. Children also have food likes and dislikes. Try to avoid struggles about eating. Patience and time probably are the only ways to deal with refusal to eat, food jags, and changing preferences. Try to have some quiet time before the meal - read a story or listen to some music. Teeth Care - clean teeth with a soft brush after each meal. If your child wants to do this him/herself, assist to be sure the job is thorough and don't let your child walk around with a tooth- brush is his/her mouth. Use toothpaste only twice a day and use only a pea-sized amount on your child's toothbrush. The first dental visit should be scheduled at 2 or 3 years of age.

Feeding Hungry Tummies

Nutritious snacks

It is important to offer healthy snacks daily. Toddlers' tummies are small. To meet nutritional needs, children usually need planned snacks between meals.

Small portions

Think from a child's point of view. Give small portions (1 tablespoon) to start and let your child ask for more.

Frequent feedings

Toddlers have high energy and short attention spans.

Children need to eat 5-6 times a day.

Finger foods

Offer small bite size pieces and a variety of foods served different ways.

Bright colors

Try deep yellow, bright green or red veggies and different textures in a meal.

Mild flavors are preferred

Toddlers have keen taste buds. Go lightly on spices and limit salty, sweet & fatty foods.

Chewing is work

Even with teeth, chewing may be hard for toddlers. Most table foods need to be chopped.

Children eat when hungry

Appetite is a good guide to go by.
