1. **Bananas**: Easily digestible and rich in potassium and fiber.
2. **Pears**: Soft and gentle on the stomach, providing vitamins and dietary fiber.
3. **Apples**: Ensure they are peeled and sliced to avoid any contamination, and they provide vitamins and fiber.
4. **Papayas**: Rich in vitamins A and C, and enzymes that aid digestion.
5. **Mangoes**: When ripe, mangoes are delicious and rich in vitamins A and C, but be cautious with quantity due to their high fiber content.
6. **Chikoo (Sapodilla)**: Soft and sweet, rich in dietary fiber and vitamins.
7. **Pomegranates**: Packed with antioxidants and vitamins, they are best served as arils (seeds) for younger children.
8. **Watermelon**: Refreshing and hydrating, especially during humid weather.
Remember to wash fruits thoroughly before consumption, and peel them when necessary to reduce the risk of contamination. Introduce new fruits gradually to monitor for any allergic reactions or digestive issues. If your child has specific health concerns or dietary restrictions, consult with your pediatrician for personalized advice.
