Moms, are you worried your little one isn't getting enough protein? Okay, protein is essential for growth, but don't worry, it's much easier to hit their needs than you may have thought. The truth is children only need half of their body weight in grams of protein each day. So let's say your child's 30 pounds. That's only 15 grams of protein for the entire day. This can be as simple as an egg and some Greek yogurt. A single egg contains about 6 grams of protein and about a serving of Greek yogurt's anywhere around like 10 grams. Bam! Okay, they got their minimum needs met just with those two foods. So yes, it's important to be mindful of kids' protein consumption. It's crucial for children's growth and development, but it's pretty easy for them to get what they need. I hope this helps. One last reminder, remember, it's okay if they only eat a few bites of chicken at their main dish. As long as you're serving protein with each and every meal or snack, they're likely getting plenty.
