Bread pretzels are soft and easy to hold. Perfect finger foods for children and parents struggling with feeding challenges
Add high caloric spreads to any spreadable surface. This is also a good way to introduce new tastes to a previously loved one, such as a baby mum mum
Avoid lunch bag let down by using a bento style lunch box. Include the foods your child likes with a small portion of something new to spark their interest
It takes a lot of practice to learn how to use a fork and spoon. The volume of food your child eats might be reduced at this time but remember once they can self feed then they become better eaters. Worth the wait!
Summer is a good time to entice tasty new foods. Ice cream can slowly be transitioned to frozen yogurt and then to home made Popsicles full of good nutritious ingredients!
It takes a lot of PATIENCE to work towards happy eating. Once a child is self feeding they can experience the joy of food, even if it means they eat less than when the parent is feeding them.
Lasagna is a baby friendly food. Easy for self feeding
