A real week from Tiny Tummies, our toddler meal plan (Australian edition)

Somewhere between the sleep deprivation and the fourth rejected dinner, feeding a toddler stops being cooking and becomes negotiation with a tiny food critic who yesterday loved pasta and today regards it as poison.

Below is a genuine week from Tiny Tummies, the toddler meal plan (ages one to two) built inside Joyora by Georgia, our qualified early childhood educator and co‑founder. Not a stock example, this is the actual plan a Joyora family sees.

Why the same few dishes keep reappearing

Leftovers, repeated safe foods, and a small rotating snack list are not corner‑cutting, they are the plan. A toddler eats better on food they recognise, and a parent cooks more sustainably when Tuesday's lunch is Monday's dinner again. Predictability is the feature, not a compromise.

This is one real week of a growing library

Tiny Tummies is one of six age‑banded plans inside Joyora, spanning first purées through to primary school lunchboxes. More weeks are being added to each plan over the coming months. Alongside the meal plan, Joyora also gives you a daily activity, because feeding and playing are honestly the same job most days, getting through with something to show for it.

If dinner is currently a nightly negotiation, our fussy eating guide was written for you.

Frequently asked questions

What should a toddler eat in a day?

Roughly three small meals and two snacks, drawn from the main food groups across the day rather than balanced at every sitting. Whole days average out; single meals do not need to.
