Hm would be interesting to hear other views but I have heard it is 2 years and my 2-year-old is now on semi-skimmed. He is thriving and hasn't objected ...

I thought it was up until 5 years old they needed full fat varieties of all dairy products?

My DD is 7 though so my info is probably wildly outdated though

at 2 they can have semiskimmed and at 5 they can have skimmed. but my 2 year old loves her milk and is small/slim so im going to still give her fullfat unless there are any reasons it is bad for them?

My 2 have been on skimmed milk since they were 2 and 3.
