Month 16 news
Well hello there, little chatterbox! Your little one has probably mastered a few words – and as a result won't stop saying them. If your toddler isn't quite there yet, don't worry. They'll pick up language soon enough and then you won't be able to stop them gabbling! |

The Expert View
Protein is so important for your little one, but did you know it's quite easy for toddlers to get more than they need for growth and development? In fact, the average 1-3 year old is getting too much protein – and there is some evidence to suggest that an excess in early life can lead to being overweight later on. So to keep track of what your little one is getting, aim for at least 14.5 grams of protein a day – half of this can come from 400ml of SMA® PRO Toddler Milk. Mince, eggs and baked beans are also good sources of healthy protein. |

Tip: Getting enough iron
If your toddler is a vegetarian, beans, lentils and dried fruit are good sources of iron. Give them to your little one along with a beaker of orange juice – the vitamin C will help them absorb more iron. |
