Top 6 finger foods when weaning your baby from Organix, the organic baby and toddler food brand
As you and your baby grow more confident, you can have fun with all sorts of lip-smacking tasty foods. They might take it very seriously, or squeal with delight as they squish and squash finger foods between their fingers. As they do so, they are boosting their hand-eye co-ordination and you will experience the wonder of watching your little ones first tastes. Just as taste is a whole new, wonderous world to your baby, so is shape. A cube of cheese, a tube of pasta or a segment of orange are all exciting new shapes, and your little one will want to reach out to grip and grab these enticing-looking finger foods. Finger foods are also a great tool for busy mums and dads when out and about. It is always worth ensuring you have a packet of melty Organix Pea Puffs handy for any long journeys or hungry café moments.

It’s our way of giving mums and dads the added reassurance of finger foods they can trust for their little one.
