I gave both my kids pbj as soon as they started eating table food they were fine with it I knew I had no serious allergies so my kids don't either.

Doctors tell us not to give a child peanut butter until they are at least two because of possible allergies. Then it should depend on their eating habit. If they have a tendency to choke easily, I would wait. Peanut butter is in the top ten for things that children choke to death on.

A lady that watched my son for 2 hours a day always gave my son a spoon of creamy peanut butter and he was under 1 yr old- I did not do it personally, too chicken haha... but now that my son is 2 1/2 his favorite treat is a huge spoon full of peanut butter.

If you don't have any peanut allergies in your family history, I would say they can have peanut butter around 3 years old. I would wait to give peanuts until they are 5.

I gave my girls peanut butter around 1 and it has been no problem. Definitely observe to make sure your child has no reaction.

After the age of 1 unless the allergy runs in the family, then after 3.
