Mazel Tov! A year has passed since birth and you can already see beyond the breastfeeding, transcription and tasting stages and begin to prepare the ground for healthy dietary habits.

What foods are needed for healthy development of the baby brain?

To the full article

In addition, it is advisable to use them for regular drinking of water so that they do not dry out. A 1-year-old should receive at least one glass of 237 ml of water a day, and more so when they are active or sick, and as they grow older (in case of doubt, check their diapers - they need to pee at least every 6 hours).

Here are 9 recommendations for healthy foods for 1-year-olds that won't save you long preparation time and will direct you to something equally important - chasing them around the house.

1. Fruits in soft texture

During this time the children begin to develop their "grip of the forceps" - pressing and maneuvering the food with their fingertips in an attempt to feed themselves. This is an opportunity to stop serving them crushed fruits as a moisturizer and start giving them soft fresh fruits, which also provide much needed nutritional value (you can start making smoothies or snacking in the playground). It can be bananas, clementines, strawberries, peaches, mangoes and more.

The avocado fruit is especially recommended at this time thanks to its creamy texture and impressive nutritional profile. It is packed with healthy fats that benefit your child's brain and heart, and half a cup (75 grams) of it cut into cubes provides nearly 9 grams of unhealthy unsaturated fats. The avocado can also be crushed and smeared on whole grain toast or cracker, and blended with other soft-textured fruits and vegetables.

If the kids don't take the new fruit right away don't worry; Studies have shown that they usually need to be exposed to new food 6-15 times before agreeing to have it in their diet. Here's what it's important to know before you begin:

• Avoid large pieces of fruit that may be a danger of suffocation. For example, the banana should be cut lengthwise, and grapes into halves or quarters.

• According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, make sure your child eats any cut fruit within two hours of taking it out of the refrigerator, and within an hour if you are outside and the temperature is above 32 degrees Celsius.

2. Steamed vegetables

Vegetable evaporation like broccoli, peas and carrots is a great way to introduce children to this important food group: Broccoli, carrots and peas are packed with fiber and vitamin C. In addition, carrots contain lutein that supports eye health, and peas contain muscle-building proteins. Other possible vegetables for evaporation are white carrots, sweet potatoes and dill, which can be served with a lemon or hummus yogurt dip.

And if we have already reached chickpeas: our national spread is both delicious and provides plenty of protein, healthy fats, vitamins and minerals. It can be served as a supplement to everything you serve to children - after making sure they are not allergic to sesame, a major ingredient in grinding that is included in the hummus ingredients. Sesame seeds are among the ten most common food allergens, accounting for 17 percent of children's food allergies.

There are many places where you can buy fresh, high-quality chickpeas, and you can also make them at home (mix boiled chickpeas, garlic, tahini and olive oil in a food processor until smooth).

3 eggs

Eggs are a nutritional "powerhouse": support for eye health and proper brain development and protein-rich, healthy fats and many other nutrients. They can be cooked in a variety of shapes and served in bite-sized pieces, but it is very important to make sure that there are no allergy symptoms such as skin lacerations, nasal congestion, digestive problems, cough, wheezing and shortness of breath.

Eggs are among the eight most common food allergies to children and can rarely cause anaphylaxis, a serious, life-threatening reaction that can narrow the airways, cause dizziness or loss of consciousness.

4. Milk and yogurt

At one year old, many children are in the process of weaning from breast milk or ointment, and can gradually be introduced to cow's milk, as a supper or as a snack. Whole milk and yogurt are great sources of protein and bone-building calcium, which also benefits their developing teeth. Of whole milk gives 39 percent of the daily value of calcium that the yearly needs daily, as well as 8 grams of protein.

The yogurt can be mixed with freshly cut fruit or some honey. Be careful not to give honey to infants under 12 months - it may put them at risk of toxin infection that causes botulism.

And while opinions continue to disagree about the health disadvantages and benefits of consuming long-term cow's milk - for adults and children, its products are usually safe to use at this age. Be alert for possible signs of a casein protein allergy in milk whose symptoms include wheezing, skin urticaria, vomiting and diarrhea (case allergy is expressed in about 2-3 percent of infants).

Be sure to introduce your child new food gradually, it is best to wait 3-5 days between introducing new food afterwards and see how their bodies react. If you want to give plant-based milk alternatives, consult your pediatrician before, as they are usually not recommended for toddlers.

5. Oats

At the age of one the little ones still do not fully control the jaw-grinding movement that helps chewing properly (this will happen at about four) and in the meantime their food should be crushed or cut into small, easy-to-chew pieces. Oats are excellent for this stage and its nutritional profile is particularly impressive with plenty of protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals and healthy fats, and dietary fiber that regulates digestion.

To control the amount of sugar, avoid using the prepared blends and make your own home blend. To shorten time you can simply soak the cereal and leave in the fridge for the night. Mixing the cereal with milk instead of water will add a bit more nutrients to the bowl and this can be added to cut cubes of strawberries, bananas or other fruit that your child loves.

6. Whole grain pancakes

Children love to eat small, round pancakes and should take advantage of them and prepare them for whole grains, which are a rich source of vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber. Such pancakes will provide probiotics that nourish beneficial gut bacteria, and will also be fun to play and eat if served in bite-sized pieces.

They can be served with fresh soft fruit over, apple sauce or honey drizzle, or sprinkled with a thin layer of nut butter to add protein (of course, only after you've made sure your kids aren't allergic to peanuts).

7. Chicken meat and India

Soft chunks of chicken or chunks of turkey will add to your child's diet a vital protein for proper growth. You can mix the chunks in a blender with broth or yoghurt or cut them into small bite-sized pieces to suit self-feeding. Avoid surgeons that are too hard to chew or swallow, and too spicy for their delicate stomach.

8. "Puree" beans

Bean puree, of any color, can be a rich source of iron that children need to maintain healthy blood cells (half a cup, about 130 grams, provides nearly 39 percent of the recommended amount). The mash can be served alongside vitamin C-rich foods like broccoli, diced tomatoes, or sweet potato to absorb the iron more effectively. This is especially important for small children who do not eat meat.

9. Tofu

Another great source of iron, calcium and protein is the tofu, which is made from soybeans. A 56-gram dose provides almost 1 mg of iron, or nearly 14 percent of the amount needed for your children. The same dose will also supply 12 percent of their daily calcium needs.

The tofu can be served in a variety of ways: sweet as a complement to a shake or crushed with banana, mixed with avocado, steamed vegetables or cottage cheese, in soup or as delicate and spicy fried cubes and more. Here, too, it is important to make sure in advance that the child has no allergy to soy.
