Eating pouches out and about

7 replies

When taking pouches eg Ella's kitchen out and about how are they served? Not too sure my 6mo would be able to squeeze it into her mouth herself. Do I carry a bowl and spoon with me? Or am I missing something and there's an easier way?
Thanks in advance

Squeeze straight onto the spoon

Squeeze directly from pouch onto a spoon!

Squeeze straight onto spoon.

I have done a combination of bowl/begging an extra coffee cup/spooning straight from the pouch.
These are all ok, the easiest is to let them suck it out of the pouch. If your child has any experience of drinking milk from a bottle, they'll probably get the hang of it quite quickly. Also, I had quite a few practice goes at home using flavours I knew they liked. Both DS got the hang of it after a few goes.

You can buy some pouches that have a spoon shaped bit at the top so you squeeze it and she eats it off the spoon/she puts it in her mouth and her or you squeezes it.

Actually I was wrong about them having a spoon shaped bit already on the pouch, but you can buy spoons that fit on the end of a pouch (reusable, so just remember to take it off before throwing away the pouch)
