May I use this dry milk instead of normal milk powder for my 2-year-old girl? My concern is height, not weight.

It is normal milk powder. It's just organic so the cows are not given antibiotics or growth hormones. And they are fed a non-GMO organic diet.

I would think so, it has all the nutrition but not the fat. Organic is very important to me because it doesn't have hormones or antibiotics.

No. This milk is non-fat. Toddlers need fat for brain function, I would only use this for making treats, like chocolate milk. You can try stonyfield or organic valley fresh milk 2% or whole milk plus a serving of yobaby or yotoddler daily. Your pediatrician may recommend staying on a toddler formula instead of or in addition to milk so call your doctor first. Calcium and protiein daily, with exercise will help your daughter grow to her full height potential that she is supposed to be.

You can, but it'd be easier pre-mixed. Theres just not a lot of room if you have it full for shaking/mixing. Seems like the powder gets stuck up in the nipple once you go to shake, so I would mix with a knife before putting nipple on and then shaking.

Since it has powdered milk in it, just add water to activate the milk. Adding more milk makes it too much dairy for me.

I became lactose intolerant in my 60's and switched to lactose free milk. I did not like the higher price. By adding a dropper full of there drops and letting the regular (fat free) milk 'season' for two days in the refrigerator, I have lactose free milk at a fraction of the additional cost. I do not use it for infant formula and have no experience with that age group need. If the milk is already broken down, there is no need to add these drops. Use regular milk.

Sorry, never tried milk from milk powder. I suspect that it would behave the same....you can froth in the mug itself. My wife uses a small mason jar to froth the milk and then add on top of her coffee. My wife loves this and won't ever go without again!

Hi Joanne, I also have a 2 year old and used it on her. I just made sure that I didn't put it on her hands that she puts in her mouth. I also used it on my 3 month old's legs. :)

To be honest harsh chemicals are never good for children. So I guess it depends on age and the parents opinion. Since it is an actual acrylic kit like the ones that they use in a salon I would say no maybe something without such harsh chemicals would be appropriate. (You have to mix liquid and powder. There is a ratio and certin steps to follow)

Hi! My baby girl started using it when she was 13months old! There is no mnimum hight it's an excellent product! Hope it helps you!!

I'm afraid not. In fact, far from it. This, in no way, simulates powdered milk. Have you ever had NOT a "milk shake," but a chocolate, strawberry, or vanilla malt? This is the "malt" that is added to any flavor milk shake to give it that extra rich flavor.

Thankfully my daughter drinks her milk at room temp. I personally wouldn't since there is a piece that goes in the bottom part that is made out of the same material as the nipple.

I don't think so. I would imagine the height of your 2 year old is too short. They have to fit into the weight and height that the manufacturer recommends.

You certainly can. Most milk sold in stores is fine. I read that Walmart milk doesn't work as well. The best milk I got was from Price Chopper. I also purchased calcium chloride to add to my milk. Google it for more info.

I've used powdered milk and it set perfectly. I've never used soy or rice milk, so I can't if they would work the same.

I don't see why not, wish i had thought of that,(DUH) it was delicious, but went off before i could use it all!!!Things with a lot of fat in them usually freeze well. i had bought the milk from the same maker, but in very small carton, perfect! thought this was the same size as the milk, didn't read close.

I think you can. Probably she may not be able to do it right till a little older. But it can be used as starter cup. Great for learning. My girl started at about 1 year plus. I think you can start at any age depending on what makes you comfortable.

I think it is too big for a two year old. My 4 year old uses it everyday! She is 104 cms. tall. I think it could be used up to 5 years old, easily.

I think if you add just a little and test it out, it also depends on your sippy cup, our two year old likes to eat this as a thick yogurt-like consistency snack mixed with a little coconut milk and some jam. She likes to have some granola in it too sometimes
