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

Awwwww, how cute!

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

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

fusilli is easier

true about the fusilli, norah.

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

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

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

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