Stage 3 Weaning
Family mealtimes really do take shape when your little one is ready to share the same tastes at mealtimes as you. Stage 3 weaning is when your baby will be more interested in finger foods and trying the food you eat. It means less mushing, squishing and mashing, as your baby discovers the world of using their own cutlery, hands and chewing food. For many parents this can be a daunting stage, as they become more independent. Read on for some articles, tips and ideas to help you all enjoy family mealtimes with your baby or toddler.

Food Safety and Weaning!
As you start thinking about the exciting new world of weaning, it’s important not to forget that any food you serve needs to be safe.
