These meals I have planned meet the nutritional needs of a child because it includes a daily intake of veggies, fruits, grains, dairy, and water. I also took into case the dexterity of the child, I chose all foods that could be easily picked up with child's hands or picked up with a spoon. Take into mind that the child may not always finish all of the portions of the food but this is ok, do not force child to eat every last bit
