If it's small and round (i.e., carrots), slice them lengthwise so it won't be a choking hazard. If you look at your toddler's pinky finger, that will give you an idea of how small his/her esophagus is - so choking is a very real hazard. (Hot dog weiners are another thing I always slice lengthwise to avoid the choking hazard.) Of course, you still want to avoid giving your 2 year old peanuts, peanut butter, or anything that has peanuts or peanut oil in it. Most pediatricians recommend waiting until at least age 3 before introducing peanuts into the diet. This isn't true of tree nuts - your child can have those now, unless you know of an allergy your child has to tree nuts. Also - please don't give your 2 year old popcorn. Lots of toddlers choke to death every year on popcorn. Pretty much anything he/she will eat is good. If it’s small and round (i.e., carrots), slice them lengthwise so it won’t be a choking hazard.

My sons favourite was brocolli, I used to stand the stalks up in cheese sauce, he said it looked like a forest. Dark Green and orange veggies are the best.
