Diet Plan for 24 Month 3 Week Old Toddler
Introduction
In your child’s second year, there will be more developmental changes that require more fuel in the form of nutrients. Good fats are one of the best sources of fuel – enrich your child’s diet with almonds, cashew nuts, walnuts, dates, and seed like flaxseed as they can give your child energy to go on. Nut butters are also a great idea in that regard. Here’s what you should feed your child this week:
