I know that kids can't have honey until a certain age, but I fogot when that was. Do you know when it is? Also, if they can't have actual honey, can they have like Honey Teddy Grahams or like Honey Nut Cheerios? Sorry for being so absent minded.
TIA

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thanks everyone for your responses. I really appreciate it. I'll call my pedi before I give him anything with honey in it regardless of if it's been cooked or not.

It's a year for honey honey. For other things, I think it's ok to give them the Teddy Grahams since they're cooked. I wouldn't give them the Cheerios though if they have nuts in them. I think most peds have you wait until 18 months or later for nut ingredients.

I actually heard it was yo should not give children under 2 unpasterized honey... What ever that means, but they do have information about it on the internet, and you are not supposed to give children under 24 months any peanut byproduct either because they say it could cause an allergy to them.
