Hello!

My toddler doesn’t like eating.. Especially breakfast. He might eat a few Fruity Bites or give them a miss totally. He’s more savoury. What do you give your under 2 year old to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner?

  • My daughter doesn’t eat a lot, you need to remember they have very small tummy’s and perhaps what your child is eating is sufficient for them. Keep offering snacks or have them readily available for your child to access when they are hungry. My daughter is now 6 and I have had this issue with her since she was 2 and she is healthy and doing well but just doesn’t eat much.


  • First of all when your toddler is happy and growing, this doesn’t have to be a reason of concern. They’re only little and don’t need heaps of food. At that age I often filled an ice cube tray for my kids with a variety of healthier foods (for example quarters of boiled egg, cubes of cheese, banana slices, pieces of kiwi or strawberry, pieces of bread, etc) and they could pick from that when they wanted


  • Oh hun, the way I could have written this myself! My toddler suddenly doesn’t want any meat, only tuna and salmon with rice occasionally. Only wants fruit and vegetables, or anything that has bread. The last few days I’ve found giving him food he can graze on left where he can grab it helps. Sandwiches with hidden veg, scrolls, fruit and veg, baby trail mix (Cheerios, dried yoghurt drops, currants). Breakfast is 3 weekbix and yoghurt which is always a hit and a banana. Dinner is hit and miss. If he could live off plain white rice he would. Very keen to see what others say!
