POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy2 years agoA. Most 2- to 3-year-old children need to consume about 1,000 to 1,400 calories per day.Aim for 2.5-4 serves of vegetables and legumes per day.Aim for 1-1.5 serves of fruit per day.Aim for 4 serves of grains per day.Aim for 2 serves of meat, fish, eggs or nuts per day.Aim for 2 serves of milk, yoghurt, cheese per day.Young children need protein and iron to grow and develop. Try to give your toddler 1 or 2 portions from this group each day. Beans, pulses, fish, eggs, foods made from pulses (such as tofu, hummus and soya mince) and meat are excellent sources of protein and iron.
