Wait until your baby is four to six months old before starting solid foods.

Feed your baby finger foods once he can sit up without support.

Food should be soft, easy to swallow and cut in small pieces.
Always supervise your child while they eat.
Good choices for your baby's first finger foods include:
  • Small pieces of bread
  • Cheerios
  • Small pieces of banana
  • Baby crackers
