When parents cook eight-treasure porridge for their baby, they should try to choose smaller beans and crush the materials, such as walnuts and peanuts, which need to be crushed before cooking, so that they can boil and prevent the child from choking on big ingredients. In addition, the eight-treasure porridge for the baby should be cooked for a while, and the ingredients should be rotten as much as possible, because the baby's digestive ability is weak.

When feeding children eight-treasure porridge, it is best not to add sugar, so as not to form the habit of children drinking porridge and adding sugar to porridge.
