Finger food for 6 and a half mth old

4 replies

ChocolateHobnob · 30/05/2008 17:51

My 6 and a half mth old started solids at 6 months, mainly BLW with the odd puree thrown in (and mainly rejected - she HATES puree, and having tasted them I'm with her, frankly). Anyway she loves Philly on toast, strawberries, cucumber, and melon pieces. What else can I give her, particularly on toast as she adores toast? I was wondering if could give peanut butter or is that out (no allergies here) or maybe say cashew butter instead? Or hummus? or any kind of bean dip, really?

Any thoughts?

Thank you!

I've seen a lot of people mention hummus on Aitch's blog - have you been there?

Not an expert as we haven't started this yet, but you could prob mash/whiz up things just to make them into spreads, eg mashed avacado etc?

my ds loved anything on toast at that age too, soft cheese, marmite, jam, it was his favourite. That and roasted butternut squash and sweet potato. Now his absoloute fave things are a box of raisins to sit and play and eat himself, or grapes sliced in half lengthways, they are like sweets to him.
