Melons
(6-8 mos.)
An excellent source of vitamins C and A, melons are a soothing and natural remedy for when your little one is having digestive issues. They strengthen your baby’s immune system, help prevent colds and ear infections, and develop healthy skin and strong teeth. Cantaloupes have an added concentration of beta-carotene and potassium, making them an even more desirable diet staple. If your baby is prone to rashes, check with your pediatrician on when to introduce. Their high-water content makes melons a perfect selection for baby on a hot summer day, a heathy alternative to soda or fruit juice.
