Small pieces of cheese

Kepp that camera handy............ So many good pics can be captured when they are learning , I put them in a scrap book and the memories just roll back as I flip through it.

Answer 2

any sort of sandwiches cut into soldiers

sausages
cucumber sticks
bread sticks
carrot sticks
any small cubed veg
Organics do a range of crisps which are easy to eat
cow and gate do a range of biscuits
rice
pasta
some children eat best with their hands any way and eat better for it does get messy tho. any foods you eat can be cut up small and put on their tray meat, potatoes, gravey etc. some children do not like the texture of semi solid food so try any thing and every thing in solid form. may be best to buy a plastic mat to put under their high chair

Answer 3

How about satsumas portioned off, along with other fruit and make some Angel Delight as a dip. I'm not a mother and my only experience of catering for children has been with my nieces and nephews. Make some simple sandwiches, take some biscuit cutters and cut the sandwiches into animal shapes.

Answer 4

mandarin oranges, canned green beans, peas, cheerios, goldfish, pretzels, tofu or all beef/kosher hot dogs cut in small pieces, chicken nuggets, halved grapes, banana chunks, apple slices, pieces of bagel, french fries, string cheese... just to name a few

Also, Gerber makes some great snacks for toddlers.

whatever you and rest of family eat just chop it up and put it down infront of her that way she can just pick at it

Answer 7

butter a peice of toast cut it in quarters and she should hold these well, and if u give finger foods such as watermelon or cheese dont cut it in cubes, incase they put it in at once and choke, cut them in very thin stick shapes , as wide as a pen and as long as a finger, if they break a peice off its thinner than a cube shape whick may lodge in their throat, ive got 4 kids and put great thought into fingerfoods as im scared of them choking, best of luck,
