Fresh figs are definitely healthy for children. They are rich in fiber and calcium. They contain vitamin A, C and beta-carotene, which makes them a nutritious fruit. They're also quite soft so they're easy for babies to chew. Dried figs contain a lot more sugar than the fresh ones and should not be your first option. You can serve them as of 1 year but not as often as the fresh kind.
You can eat ripe figs with the skin still on. Cut off the harder stem and serve it as a puree or as a finger food, taking into account the appropriate finger food sizes for your baby's age. You can also grill figs and serve them as part of a warm or cold dish, like a salad.
