Notes

  • Peanuts and other small foods that are round are easy for your preschooler to choke on when swallowing them. Have your child eat at the table, or at least while sitting down.
  • Always watch your child while he or she eats.
  • Try adding popcorn, plain or seasoned, as another whole grain ingredient.
