A. Toddler appetites vary constantly because of growth spurts and changing activity levels. Growth slows down in the toddler years, so toddlers don’t eat as much as they did when they were babies. Toddlers have small stomachs. Toddlers are very interested in the world around them, so they have short attention spans for food. Toddlers want to push boundaries and show how independent they can be.
