Parents are being urged to ditch supermarket snacks for their toddlers and go for fresh alternatives, to give their little ones a healthy start in life.

This follows a nutritional review into popular snacks by nutritionist Zoe Bingley-Pullen who found many pre-packaged options contain alarmingly high levels of salt, sugar and unhealthy fats. It's important that toddlers are eating a rainbow of fruit and veggies, to establish healthy eating habits for life.

The review supports the innovative -Eating My Colourful Vegies and Fruit' program, which helps children at preschool develop varied food preferences in fun and positive ways.
