Yeah it's fine, long grain, pudding, risotto....all rice is fine for kids as far as I'm aware. You should cook it fresh though as cooked rice contains a bacteria that can make you very ill if it isn't cooled very quickly and put in the fridge/freezer within a short space of time. This bacteria isn't killed when heated either so just be doubly careful if you're saving any leftover rice



here's a quote from this link

I've heard that reheating rice can cause food poisoning. Is this true?
It's true that you could get food poisoning from eating reheated rice. But it's not actually the reheating that's the problem – it's the way the rice has been stored before reheating.

Uncooked rice can contain spores of Bacillus cereus, bacteria that can cause food poisoning. When the rice is cooked, the spores can survive. Then, if the rice is left standing at room temperature, the spores will germinate into bacteria. These bacteria will multiply and may produce toxins (poisons) that cause vomiting or diarrhoea. Reheating the rice won't get rid of these toxins.

So, the longer cooked rice is left at room temperature, the more likely it is that bacteria, or the toxins they produce, could stop the rice being safe to eat.

It's best to serve rice when it has just been cooked. If that isn't possible, cool the rice as quickly as possible (ideally within one hour) and keep it in the fridge for no more than one day until reheating.

Remember that when you reheat any food, you should always check that it's steaming hot all the way through, and avoid reheating more than once

Did you know that worldwide rice is the biggest cause of food poisoning?

Yeah, scary isn't it? Most people have no idea either....it's the speedy cooling down and putting it in fridge/freezer asap that's the most important thing
