These days mostly we use some refined oil for preparing our food. Do you use any specific oil/ghee etc. to prepare your kid's food. I was wondering about this so wanted to know what the moms out here do.

I have been using the Refined sunflower oil for all my family. Have been cooking for my daughter in the same oil. I am not aware if we should use some different oil for kids.

I have been using "Saffola Active" for my whole family. I prepare my kids food in the same oil. I guess it should be good for kids as well.
I do prepare somethings for my daughter in ghee as she is very thin.

zhumimum,
You should avoid coconut oil.. you can use Soyabean/ Sunflower/ Olive oil for the entire family including kids.

I have also been using one of Saffola's oil for my whole family. I use either "Saffola Gold" or "Saffola Active". I have seen that these generally are a mix of Sunflower/SaffFlower/ Soyabean oil. I guess using a mix of oils is good. Saffola even advertises that its oil are good for health with Omega3 fatty acis.

I use either Sundrop or Saffola as these are known brands of oil for my whole family. I do not use any different oil for my son. I suppose oils by these 2 brands are good for all age. And generally I have seen these brands have oils which are mix of Sunflower, Soybean, corn etc. oils. And as far as I am aware kids should be given mix of different oils.
