DD loves feeding herself, so finger foods are a hit with her. Sometimes she'll even grab the spoon, and then pick up the food off the spoon with her other hand. LOL.
Some foods I give DD as finger food include:
- Gerber Veggie Puffs or Gerber Fruit Puffs
- Cheerios
- Waffles
- Pancakes
- French Toast
- Bread
- English Muffin
- Crackers
- Rice Cakes
- Yams
- Banana
- Avocado
- Pineapple
- Strawberries
- Apple
- Pear
- Melons (cantalope, honeydew, etc)
- Tomato
- Grapes
- Peaches
- Mango
- Pineapple
- Orange
- Carrot
- Zucchini
- Yellow Squash
- Broccoli (I prefer not to do this finger style cuz the flowery bits get all over the place)
- Cauliflower
- Peas & Carrots (frozen pkg)
- Beans
- Cheese (cubed)
- Tofu (cubed)
- Pizza Rolls (we cut them up into very small pieces for her)
And of course we have non-finger foods that end up into finger foods when she gets in the mood for using her fingers instead of the spoon.
