Instructions
After 6 months, as infants grow and their digestive, handwashing, and metabolic functions improve, relying solely on milk products is insufficient to meet their growth and nutritional needs. Therefore, infants' diets need to gradually transition to solid foods. The aim is to help infants adapt to and enjoy various foods, develop their ability to eat independently, and cultivate good eating habits, ultimately achieving a significant transition to adult diets.
