fingerfoods ideas?

Question

My son is 13 months. He eats toast, ravioli (plain) crackers, and apples. I've tried other foods such as mac and cheese, and diced fruits, but he won't touch anything slippery or mushy, not even green beans carrots or peas. I often have to feed him pureed fruits and vegtables. Have any ideas on other finger foods?

Answer 1

Cheese stick, celery with peanut butter, instead of mashed potatoes try boiling the small red potatoes, seedless grapes, french fries (the thick cut ones), grill cheese sandwich cut in squares....

Serving Size: 0

Ingredients:
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt -- or powder
1/4 tablespoon parsley, freeze-dried
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasonings
1 pound bisquick baking mix
8 3/4 ounces cold water
1/4 pound sharp cheddar cheese -- grated
1/8 cup butter or margarine


Cooking Directions:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Mix bisquick, water and cheese. Drop by large
spoonfuls onto greased baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes. After baking,
(while hot) brush on melted butter or margarine mixed with garlic powder,
parsley flakes and italian seasoning. (Amounts will vary by the size batch
you make, but a little goes a long way.) Serve hot.

The Red Lobster manager's recipe is for a large quantity, so you'll have
to reduce the ingredient quantities by the size batch you desire. Note:
For a smaller batch I usually use 2 C. Bisquick, 1/2 cup cold water, and
3/4 c. grated cheddar which will yield about 12 biscuits.

You may also substitute soda water or gingerale for the water, if desired.

Gerber makes all kinds of finger foods for kids. They are actually called Gerber Finger Foods. My baby is 10 months old and she eats them. They come in sealabel tubes. Here is a link to the website http://www.gerber.com/prodcat?catid=524 Most stores sell generic brands too that are letters and numbers I think we found some at babies r us or target. My baby will fight me if I try to take a gerber pin wheel away from her.

Answer 5

Have you tried hot dogs? My kids used to love them. Also chicken nuggets are good ( I would tear them into bite size pieces first) yogurts, cheese (grilled or plain) and hard boiled eggs. good luck getting kids to eat can br tricky.

Answer 6

Try some healthier dry cereal, like Kix or Life. Time to introduce him to a baby fork, I think. Spear the food for him, then give him the fork to transfer to his mouth.

Answer 7

Hot dogs, bologna and cheese, cheese puffs, graham crackers, or pb&j sandwiches. He doesn't eat mashed potatoes? All kids like mashed potatoes!

Answer 8

Hmmm, how about these?
-------------------------
Maybe he'll eat bits of chicken if you skewer it and let him eat it off of the stick!
--------------------------------
If you take eggplant, slice it like french fries, cover with seasoned flour, then fry, it tastes like french fries and he'll never know he ate something that started out green! This worked on my nieces.
---------------------------------------
Take a flour tortilla (if he'll eat breads) and top with slice of ham (or whatever meat he'll eat) and cheese then roll up and stick toothpick in it. He might like it just because it looks neat all rolled up.

Good luck!

Answer 9

GRAHAM CRACKERS COME IN STICKS NOW. HE WOULD PROBABLY LIKE THOSE, BECAUSE THEY ARE SWEET. GOOD LUCK!
