Feeding:Advise for 20 month old toddler

Name: AAA



Hi,
I have a 20 month old toddler gal.I give rice with dal(small quantity) and curd rice along with vegetables for her during lunch. Her favorite is curd rice and hence I give the vegetables along with curd rice. Sometimes she doesnt take it fully at all. She likes spicy foods very much. I need ideas to make the lunch time more happier.What all different foods can be given during lunch.

I would like to know if toddlers can be given vegetables with the same taste as we take.

Another problem is,she doesnt like all vegetables.Please give some suggestions.

It doesn' t matter if she doesn' t like all vegetables. Do you like all veggies ? :)

Pick veggies from the major groups - yellow, green leafy, green and let her have maybe one or two from each of these groups. For e.g. if she likes carrot, but doesn' t like pumpkin, it' s ok, as they are from the same group.

Yes, you can give her table food - veggies cooked like it is for us, only not too spicy, make it lightly spiced.

You only mentioned rice, veggies and curd. What about rotis ? Try introducing rotis. You can give her roti (phulka) with table veggies.

Another thing to include is fruits.

All the best.

Just hard boil the egg. Make sure it is fully cooked. The yolk should be firm and crumbly. Does she like egg ? If she does, then it doesn´ t matter how you feed it to her. If she doesn´ t, try mixing it in something she likes.... like a pulao with small bits of boiled shredded egg.
And if she resists it, try after a break.... But, if she is really averse to it, then maybe you can eliminate it. After all, there are many veggie and vegan babies who don´ t eat egg at all.

Hi Mel,
Thanks for your reply. Ya she takes fruits,and roti as well. I have introduced the egg since two days. My doctor asked me to give the yellow of boiled egg in the first week, then give the white part in second week. How to give these egg parts. I am a vegetarian, hence please give suggestions.
