Australian Eggs have created a suite of collateral for Maternal and Child Health Nurses to provide to their clients. This is because it’s often challenging and confusing for parents to know where and how to start introducing their infant to solid foods, as well as making family friendly meals everyone can eat.
Below you’ll find links to our First Foods fact sheet and recipe booklet which are both packed full of helpful nutritional information, delicious recipes for tiny mouths and, tips for when it comes time to introduce new textures and flavours to your child's diet, who’s now on the path toward joining family meal times.
Should you wish to have hardcopies of the collateral posted to you for FREE, please complete the below order form.

Eggs for Babies and Children
Every parent wants to ensure their child will grow healthily and happily. But parenthood can be overwhelming, with conflicting advice on what is and isn’t good for babies.
Egg Allergies
Many children are able to tolerate baked eggs even when they’re allergic to raw eggs (to test this, seek the advice of a health professional). And most children with an egg allergy will outgrow it and be able to tolerate eggs by the age of four.
