Balanced plates

Is  “can I have a snack?” something you’re hearing 100 times a day at the moment? You’re definitely not alone. And given that we’re all at home a lot more at the moment sometimes, as parents, we know it’s just easier to give in despite all the ‘advice’. We’ve condensed the most important bits from all the guidance out there so you can decide whether you really need to tame your snack-loving child. You can have a look at what kind of foods should be on you toddlers plate, how often they should be eating and how big their portions should really be. But life is all about balance, so if you find yourself dishing out the ice lollies so you can get some peace... that's ok too!
