Meat, fish, poultry, eggs
Milk, cheese, and other dairy products
Fruits and vegetables
Cereals, potatoes, rice, flour products
Don't be alarmed if your child he doesn't always meet this ideal. Many toddlers resist eating certain foods—or insist on eating only one or two favorite foods. The more you struggle with your child over his or her eating preferences, the more determined he or she will be to defy you.
Offering a variety of foods and leaving the choices up to your child will eventually allow him or her to eat a balanced diet on his or her own. Toddlers also like to feed themselves, so whenever possible, offer your child finger foods instead of cooked ones that require a fork or spoon to eat.
