The melon

The melon is a delicious and refreshing fruit that can offer many baby benefits in food diversification led by the child ( BLW ). Here are some reasons why the melon is a great option for toddlers:

Rich in water : the melon is made up of more than 90 % water, making it an excellent choice to hydrate your baby, especially during the hot months. It helps prevent dehydration and maintain a good water balance.

Source of vitamins : The melon is rich in vitamins A and C. Vitamin A is essential for eye health and good development of the immune system. Vitamin C, on the other hand, plays an important role in protection against infections and helps to absorb iron.

Easy to digest : the tender melon flesh is easy to chew and digest for a baby. This makes it a suitable food from the first phases of the BLW , when the baby is offered pieces of food that he can handle and eat alone.

Naturally sweet taste : the melon has a sweet and pleasant taste, which can help to awaken your baby's taste taste buds and encourage a positive relationship with the fruits from the start.
