Chicken soup is not just an old wives tale for a cold remedy. Data suggests that drinking warm chicken soup may help remedy a stuffy nose, results in less inflammation in the body, and leads to fewer cold symptoms.
If you are serving chicken soup to a toddler, make sure you are making the real-deal that is chock-full of vegetables and real chicken as opposed to the canned version. To serve, offer your little one soft cooked veggies and small pieces of soft chicken in a shallow pool of broth. Strained broth can be served in a cup for sipping too. Just make sure the soup isn't too hot.
