The fundamental principle of baby-led weaning (BLW) is this: the child is king of the meal! They decide, they evaluate, because ultimately, they're the ones who get to eat! BLW is a completely different approach to feeding. Say goodbye to the spoon shoved to the back of the palate and hello to delicate little fingers that will perfectly accomplish their mission!
Our spoons have been a game changer with our own casserole dish; our spoons are the perfect size for little hands, easy to handle, and promote independence as they trap food thanks to their holes.
2. The divided suction cup plate
If you have a picky eater , a divided plate is a must-have. It allows the child to see each food item separately. The suction cup also prevents spills, which is definitely a plus !
For us, we eat at both the table and the counter, which makes a placemat essential. It folds easily for transport and stays in place. In a restaurant without equipment, a placemat is all you need! A quick wipe and the surface is clean! Importantly, it adheres well to surfaces, making it very practical!
