Toppings are optional but add extra flavour and texture to the dish. Let your kids have fun with the toppings and proving them with some fresh fruit, dried fruit, nut butters, nuts, seed and spices to choose from. Toppings should be age appropriate, be mindful of the toppings you use for young children. (e.g. Nuts can be a choking hazard and should be missed out or finely chopped.
