Notes
Age: 12+ months
Notes on Honey: Honey should only be served to kiddos over the age of 1. You can also use 3-4 pitted dates that have been soaking in hot water for 5 minutes in place of a sweetener.
Notes on Kefir: Kefir can be tart for some kiddos, so you might want to start using just a little bit of kefir and the rest milk to get them used to the taste at first. You can also use a little bit more sweetener or a flavored kefir if you prefer, or you can replace kefir with whichever milk you are using.
