Can 2 year olds eat peas?

Surprise your baby with a new taste and texture by offering whole green peas. These can be steamed, boiled, or frozen to provide relief for teething gums. Green peas are too small to be a choking hazard; the worst that can happen is that they come out whole from the other end!

Can 1 year old eat raw peas?

Yes. Wait until your baby is 18 months old and has some teeth before serving whole pods. Even then, the inner peas can be a choking hazard if accidentally swallowed. To mitigate the risk, pinch the pod to smash the peas (and still serve whole) or chop up the pods.
