i used to peel till my kids turned 2, and then let them have it with the skin. of course i know that there is a lot of issues related to giving the peel, such as the possibility of pesticides and colour being added and so on. but if you really wash it well and scrub it before giving, i have not really felt there is any health scare in giving the apple with peel. in fact, the skin of fruits and vegetables are really healthy, so unless you notice any discomfort or health issue, you can start giving once your baby is over 2 or 3 years of age.
