A nurse is teaching about nutrition to the guardian of a 2-year-old toddler. Which of the following statements should the nurse include in the teaching?

A. A 2-year-old toddler typically requires around 1,000 to 1,400 calories per day to meet their energy needs. This amount supports growth and development. B. Placing a large amount of food on the toddler's plate may overwhelm them and lead to food waste. A small, manageable portion is more appropriate. C. Whole milk is recommended for toddlers under 2 years old due to its higher fat content, which supports brain development. Skim milk should not be introduced until after 2 years of age. D. Fat intake should make up about 30-40% of total daily calories in toddlers, but it is not the goal to limit fat intake to exactly 40%. Fats are essential for growth and development.
