Some foods are not safe for toddlers
Little mouths and throats are not suited for big chunks of food, which could pose a choking hazard. The American Academy of Paediatrics says parents should avoid giving their toddlers:
*Whole hot dogs (should be sliced).
*Jelly beans and other hard candies, as well as nuts, seeds and popcorn.
*Thick chunks of peanut butter.
*Raw crunchy vegetables, such as green beans, carrots or celery.
*Whole cherry tomatoes or grapes (they should be quartered).
*Big chunks of meat, fruit, raw veggies or potatoes.
