Finger food ideas from 6 months!
From 6 months, little ones are learning to grab foods and pop them into their mouth, developing hand-eye coordination.
Finger foods must be super-soft and mush down easily to start, so they melt in your baby's mouth. They should also be long enough to peep out of a little fist and chunky enough to munch on safely.
Finger foods to try
Why not try these yummy finger foods:
- Cooked veggie sticks like carrot + parsnip
(well-cooked, super soft and cut to the size + shape of an adult index finger) - Cooked broccoli trees or cauli florets (halved or quartered lengthways)
- Banana or mango fingers
- Ella’s Kitchen Melty Puffs
