Oh, Ds1 is Trying To Eat Pasta. I Want To Help Him But Am Sitting On My Hands!

[magnolia1]

He is 8 months and sitting in his highchchair with pasta tubes. I want to feed him so he doesn't keep squeezing them till the pop out of his fingers and onto the floor

[Lizzer]

Awwwww, how cute!

[Tapster]

They often learn but watching - think you need to eat some at the same time, how else will he know what to do?

[magnolia1]

I did exactly that and ate some too. He proceeded to squish it up into a sticky mess

Ho hum maybe he isn't a pasta lover. He loved the rusk after though

[ruddynorah]

fusilli is easier

[Aitch]

true about the fusilli, norah.

[Twinklemegan]

Yep fusilli is great. My DS wolfed them down in one go without chewing.

[Habbibu]

We found spirali even better than fusilli - neatly shaped for a little finger to hook round and bite off half.

[magnolia1]

Ok, will have to get some pasta variety going on here

[mabel1973]

pasta shells are a good shape to grab - sorry can't think of 'proper' name
