Feeding a child is important to ensure his health and physical and mental development. Newborns should be breastfed for at least 6 months, and solid food should be introduced gradually after the age of 6 months. Offer a variety of foods, including vegetables, fruits, whole grains, meat, fish, dairy and healthy oils. Foods high in added sugar and fats and foods with a high risk of allergic reactions should be avoided. Pay attention to size and food hygiene, and encourage children to eat healthy and varied foods.
