sandiwches (obviously), carrot sticks, fruit salad, yoghurt, mini biscuits.

Thanks

I wouldn't dare put a yoghurt in - my sone has a splatter radius

How about pieces of cheese? Or will he be laughed at?

ds1 like hummous in pitta breador a little tub with breadsticks. He likes bits of cucumber chopped up. He likes little sausage rolls. DS1 is oblivious to 'cool' food for now. He can't believe people have frubes, cheese strings, chocolate sandwiches.....etc.
He loves raw carrot too
