Toddler Nutrition
A brief digest about this topic
Food provides the energy and nutrients that young children need to be healthy. Toddlers are learning to feed themselves and to eat new foods. They should eat a variety of foods from all of the food groups.
Some things to watch for:
- Make sure your toddler gets enough iron
- Toddlers between 1 and 3 need 500 milligrams of calcium each day
- Don't feed your child seafood, peanuts or tree nuts before age 2 or 3
