When Curiosity is King
Your little explorer is ready for more substantial meals. Toddlers need about 40 calories per pound of body weight each day to meet growth and energy needs. Beech-Nut® Let’s Grow!™ meals are convenient, microwavable meals with an excellent source of protein. But the most important thing to remember is to keep mealtimes fun!
After about 12 months, your toddler’s appetite may drop suddenly. It may seem as if your toddler should eat more because she seems more active, but her growth rate has slowed, and she really doesn’t require as much food now. Toddlers have small stomachs so three meals and two snacks each day is about right. Of course, your toddler may want to eat a lot one day and almost nothing the next. As long as you’re providing well-balanced meals on a regular schedule and they’re eating them most of the time, you should be fine.
