[quote=Anonymous]I give my kids single choc chips around 18mo. It’s a great motivator when nothing else works. I just let my 4yr old start eating popcorn when he turned 4. He can have lollipops under close supervision but not hard candy. He could handle candy like starburst and skittles after 3. He had no candy before 2 and then his first Halloween after turning 2, I limited him to chocolate candy I thought he would not choke on. My now 4yr old has eaten mixed nuts since 18-20mo. He is good at chewing his food. My current toddler won’t get nuts until after 2 and then only soft ones like cashews to start. We can’t even give him chips because he shoves too much food in his mouth at once. You know your kid and how good he is at chewing carefully, taking bites and sitting at the table without being goofy or running around. The 4yr [/quote]
