Eating from hands

To force the child to take food and eat it, instead of getting dirty in it and smearing everything around, put ringlets on the tray( ready breakfasts), a few slices-

As the child's sleight of hand develops, the food that you can take with your fingers becomes

more attractive.

boiled boiled carrots, rice cutlets or small pieces of soft fruit. Children are also more pleased with harder foods that are pleasant during teething, such as hard crackers and bagels. Solid products, especially dentifrice products, must melt in the mouth, dissolving quickly, with only gum pressing. We noticed that our children are simply fascinated by a mountain of boiled pasta, set at an accessible distance. The ability to take items with thumb and forefinger allows the child to take pasta, spaghetti, shells or horns one piece at a time. Pulling macaroni out of the mountain keeps the child's attention to food longer than most other foods. Part of the pasta can

even reach the mouth. If you are concerned about the threat of allergies, wait until the child is nearly a year old before introducing wheat products, such as breadcrumbs, breadcrumbs and pasta. If you know that your child is prone to allergies, you can buy cookies for teething without wheat and pasta made from rice.

The ability to take food by hand also has a negative side. Food and cutlery become interesting objects that can be grabbed, dropped, thrown and thrown on the table. This does not necessarily mean giving up food or feeding, but rather reflecting the child's natural and normal need to explore new ways to apply newly acquired skills: taking, dropping, and throwing.

Indication and dipping of

In addition to the development of the grip of the thumb and forefinger, at the age of about ten months, children use their index finger to poke and point to objects - explaining their desires to the people who care for them. Children often put their finger in the new food, as if checking its taste. Use this skill and prepare a liquid dip sauce. Guava-camole sauce( from avocado), without salt and spicy spices, is very nutritious and popular at this age. Do not forget that every new skill gives its own advantages in the matter of feeding a child, and also brings its own funny inconveniences. When a child uses his index finger to dab him in food and then suck, be prepared for the young artist to start painting his body or draw with his finger on the stool tray, using food instead of paints. Enjoy, as long as the child's interest in this new achievement has not passed.

Give your child a bone

A child can move from the almost empty chicken bone, which was mentioned earlier, to a bone with a decent amount of meat left on it( still without a thin bone).It is gorgeous as a toy( you can knock it, swing it, you can gnaw it, shift it from hand to hand), and you can buy yourself a few extra minutes to enjoy your own dinner, and the child can even eat some chicken meat.
