Finger food 12-18 months old: continue to serve bite-size pieces of apple or larger pieces, as suggested above. Offer them with special dips like yogurt, banana or strawberry puree, or coat the apple slices with the dip to make it more attractive for your baby, as the texture and color of food highly affect the baby’s choice of food at this age. If offering raw apples, continue to grate or slice into paper thin slices. Depending on your little one’s chewing skills, you may start offering apples without peeling it. Encourage the use of utensils, but don’t force it. Sometimes our little ones get tired of using utensils, and they might prefer to use their hands. This is completely normal! (责任编辑:) |
