Grape

Grapes can be introduced around 6 months but must be prepared safely. Whole grapes are a serious choking hazard.

How to serve at this age

6-9 months: Quarter lengthwise and mash, or puree. 9-12 months: Offer quartered grapes. 12-24 months: Continue serving quartered lengthwise.

Nutrition

Good source of vitamins C and K. Contains antioxidants. High water content for hydration.

A note from the editors

Use a grape cutter for quick, safe preparation. Seedless varieties are more convenient.

Good to know

ALWAYS quarter grapes lengthwise until age 4+. Whole or halved grapes are a major choking hazard due to their round shape.
