Summary To address the lack of guidance in feeding toddlers, the Infant and Toddler Forum has launched a factsheet providing evidence‐based portion size ranges of a wide variety of foods. They can be used to limit excess energy intakes in toddlers (aged 1–3 years) and to reassure parents who worry that their toddlers do not eat enough.
