We had a question come in recently from a Mama who has a little toddler. She was asking for finger food ideas for him that he could experiment with but that wouldn’t be too squishy and messy so she could relax while he explored his food.
As always, the MamaBake community delivered some wonderful ideas from their own experiences.
As with everything, these are ideas and things that others have offered their children – some of these ideas might be great and others might not be right for your child. As with all tips and ideas, take from this list what you will and what you know to be best for your little one.
