Like adults, toddlers need energy (calories) from food and nutrients such as protein, calcium, iron and vitamins A & D for healthy growth and development.

From one year old you can start giving your toddler whole milk and from two years old, you can start giving your toddler low fat milk. Fully skimmed milk isn't suitable as a main drink until they are five years old, because it doesn't contain enough calories for a growing child

Vitamin D and calcium are crucial for the development of healthy bones and teeth in toddlers.

Super milk is available in both low and whole varieties.

How can Super Milk contribute to a toddlers balanced diet?

  • Protein which is essential for growth and development
