Every Lantern Festival, families in the north will prepare jiaozi, while families in the south will prepare jiaozi. Tangyuan is round and big, which means that the family is harmonious and tidy. Different jiaozi has different contents, which are suitable for all ages. So, can children eat glutinous rice balls in the morning?

Children can eat jiaozi when they get up in the morning. It is generally recommended that children over three years old and under ten years old eat two or three jiaozi. Moreover, after eating jiaozi, children can have some tea to promote gastrointestinal digestion. In addition, after children eat dumplings in the morning, it is best to eat some digestible foods at noon, such as rice porridge and noodles.

Tangyuan is not suitable for children under three years old, because it is made of glutinous rice and sticky, which may block the child's esophagus, cause indigestion and even poor breathing. In addition, children with respiratory diseases had better not eat glutinous rice balls to avoid getting worse. When children with poor digestive system eat jiaozi, it's best to eat more times to prevent accidents.

In general, it is best to eat jiaozi in the morning, and parents should not let their children eat jiaozi in the evening or afternoon. Because at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, people's stomachs are empty and gastric acid secretion is relatively strong. At this time, eating glutinous rice balls will stimulate the gastric mucosa and cause gastric mucosal damage. Eating glutinous rice balls at night will cause indigestion, which is not conducive to human gastrointestinal health.
