Toddler Nutrition Academy

Toddlerhood represents striking changes in children’s development. It is a period of a time of rapid cognitive, social-emotional, and physical development. Changing nutritional needs accompany these developmental milestones and the toddler’s diet has an impact in establishing food preferences and healthy eating behaviors. These choices in a young child’s life may have lasting impacts on dietary patterns and body weight. The Toddler Nutrition Academy is dedicated to provide scientific information and resources on toddler’s nutrition, growth and development.
