Fussy eating in toddlers webinar

Nutritional needs change when babies become toddlers. And children also start to assert their independence in the toddler years. They’re still busy exploring their environments too. That’s why fussy eating is common. But a calm approach and realistic expectations can make a big difference if your toddler has fussy eating habits.

In this webinar, we’ll explain:

  • how much food toddlers need to eat
  • how to make mealtimes more enjoyable
  • how to encourage toddlers to try new foods
  • what food habits to avoid.

If you have a toddler aged 1-3 years, this webinar is suitable for you.

In the webinar, you’ll be able to ask questions, share experiences, and hear other parents’ experiences and ideas.
