Choosing the right baby food product is a challenging task, especially when one needs to focus on quality, appropriateness to age, and price factors. Fortunately, choosing the right product will not prove to be too hard a task. At Kidzcare, we bring to our customers 4 Nestle baby cereal products below Rs 1000, an affordable budget in the prevailing economy in Sri Lanka.
Here are 4 cereal products that you may want to consider for your baby at their particular age and developmental stage.
Wanting to give your child a healthy breakfast cereal? Nestle Ceregrow Five Fruits & Multigrains is specially formulated for kids who are 3-5 years old. With four grains and five fruit flavors, it presents itself in a new form compared to the usual infant cereal made out of rice. Its composition comprises grains like wheat, rice, corn, and oats, and fruit flavors like apple, orange, mango, pomegranate, and blackcurrant.
While it originally came at Rs 950, it now costs Rs 800 per 200g pack, saving you Rs 150.
Nestle Ceregrow Wheat, Honey & Dates is the other variety offered to children aged 1 to 3. The cereal is made from wheat, milk, and dates and can be chosen by kids who like the natural sweet taste.
The cereal contains iron, zinc, vitamin A and C, calcium, and probiotic culture of bifidus BL. Iron contributes to normal mental development, and calcium helps in the development of bones. The product costs Rs 830 per 200g and hence is a cheaper alternative among the various brands of toddler cereals.
As you introduce your baby to solid foods, this easy-to-use cereal could be incorporated in your baby’s diet. Nestle CERELAC Rice & Milk is recommended for babies from six months old onwards.
This baby cereal made with rice and milk comes with iron, vitamin C, zinc, and vitamin A. The role of iron is to aid brain growth, while vitamin C assists the absorption of iron. It also has Bifidus BL probiotic cultures.
At the cost of Rs 900 per 200g, it may be worth looking into as one of the 6-month baby foods. Always remember that cereals are meant to supplement breastfeeding or formula feeding.
For infants above the age of 8 months, there is Nestle CERELAC Infant Cereal with Milk Mixed Fruits with Milk. This product has a fruit- based flavor mix that comprises rice, milk, apples, bananas, and oranges.
It provides a different flavor compared to just the rice variant. The cereal contains iron, 12 vitamins, five minerals, and Bifidus BL probiotic cultures. The cereal can be used by spoon and already has milk in it, which means there is no need to add more milk during preparation.
The cost of 200 grams of the product is Rs 950.
Where Can You Find Affordable Cereal Options for Your Little One?
However, choosing the right baby cereal goes beyond price comparison. Factors such as age of the child, contents of the food, nutritional details and professional recommendation on how to feed your child need to be taken into consideration. 4-month-old baby food should not be considered without professional recommendation since the age when complementary food is advisable is six months of age.
Another factor that parents need to keep in mind is the difference between baby milk powder, best baby formula, and complementary cereals. The main source of milk for the baby should always be breast milk or appropriate infant formula according to the individual needs of the baby.
Parents looking for baby food in Sri Lanka have the option to choose complementary cereals from many international brands at Kidzcare. With easy access through online shopping and an array of baby food feeding essentials and products, KidzCare has made it possible for parents to compare products easily.
