My toddlers like to eat eggs along with their breakfast almost everyday. Together they eat 3 eggs. I’ve been told that too much egg is not good for them and that i should only give them eggs on certain days. So how often can they eat it and how much? I never thought it was too much since its just 1.5 eggs a day each.🤷🏻♀️

Eggs are good for you ! Full of protein and omegas and our little ones are still growing and developing . I wish my oldest would eat eggs more it’s so hit and miss with her

I have read several writings on the internet (take that how you will 😂) that eggs are powerhouses for growing infants, toddlers, children. My lo eats one egg just about every day, and I plan to continue doing it until he tells me to stop, lol

@garay88 @love_linds Same! I don't portion our eggs when I make scrambled and in our home they are almost never plain. Beans, tomatoes, cheese, green onions, rice, meats of varied types, ginger, banana, onion, garlic and more in different "recipes"(I cook by taste not actual recipe). We eat lots of eggs and are very healthy. Glad I'm not alone in my thoughts on this. If I do count the portions it's usually 2_3 for all of us.

We’re the same way. We go through 2-3 dozen eggs in a week depending on meals. I’ve never been concerned over it & my almost 6yr old is a super healthy kid & eggs are probably his favorite meal. So I’m not going to stress. Lol

I've never heard this but now I'm curious. My 3 year old eats 3-5 eggs almost every day

We sometimes eat eggs for two meals in the day just prepared in a different way for each.

Eggs are full of protein and good for us. 1.5 per child is fine! Nothing at all wrong with that. If you think it's a problem then alternate "big" breakfasts days with "light" breakfast days(cereal, yogurt, cottage cheese, toast, etc). Have "light" lunches on "big" breakfast days and "big" lunches on "light" breakfast days. That's what I do bc some days just need a light breakfast to get the morning going fast or to lighten my kitchen clean up. Personally, if I were you and you are ok with making a nice breakfast daily, the children are eating well, and they are of a normal/healthy weight and are healthy/energetics in general then I would not change anything. I cook more often than we have a light breakfast. My children are everything I described that I hope yours are. Most people are just so accustomed to poor or "picky" eaters that they think anything is "too much". And there has been an ongoing debate over the years about eggs. I have seen the commercials go from the 'incredible edible' egg to the "egss are bad for you" back to "eggs are great for you". Again,if your children are eating well, hydrating well, sleeping well and overall healthy,don't change things based on someone's opinions. Even my pediatrician has agreed with me about my differing opinions from what she has advised me once I have brought up the very same things and once she sees the whole picture of my children not just a chart she has on numerous occasions told me to keep up what I am doing without a flinch. This breakfast looks great and I love that you have given them fruit to round it off. Hugs mama. You're going great!

Thank you 🙂 i have done the light breakfasts a few times because they were just not as hungry in the morning but by lunch time they want a good meal. But that’s rare lol because my son always tells me what he wants and he got used to having multiple items on his plate including fruit, eggs and another item. He likes every section of the plate to have some kind of food 🤷🏻♀️which i think its good because i know he will eat it.

I’ve never heard that before. Now I’m curious. My oldest eats 3 eggs almost every morning & my youngest eats 2. My oldest has had eggs for breakfast most mornings since he was 1. 🥴🙃
