   💡 Extra Tips for This Plan

   • Offer water throughout the day — avoid juice except for occasional diluted portions.

   • Keep pieces small & soft to avoid choking.

   • Switch protein sources (fish, meat, eggs, legumes) for balanced nutrition.

   • You can batch-cook dinners and freeze portions for easier weekdays.
