First Finger Food

Puffs. If you don’t know what Gerber puffs are – they are puffed grains flavored with real fruits & veggies. They melt very quickly when they’re in your mouth but are a perfect “first finger food” for baby.

The boys first tried these out about a month ago and are doing really well with them. They definitely got a mixed reaction at first but now they are a favorite snack of both boys. Both boys were initially shocked by the texture of them, Colton more-so than Wyatt, but once they tried a couple and got used to them – they LOVE them! We use these as a little addition to the boys’ lunch & dinner.

Both of the boys’ first reactions were to close their lips tight when we would offer them a puff, but after a couple tries and once the boys’ learned how yummy they were – they now open their mouths wide for them and are excited when you offer them one. We have the puffs in banana, peach & sweet potato flavors.

They haven’t quite figured out how to get them from their high chair tray into their mouth on their own yet but I’m sure with just a little practice they will figure it out in no time!
