What is the best finger foods for a 15 month?




Answers:
My daughter loves bananas and kiwi fruit. Cheerios, graham crackers, animal crackers. Cheese. Sliced hard boiled egg. Toast. Goldfish crackers.
It's important to vary foods for different nutrients. (like bananas for potassium, and eggs for protein.)

Gerber graduates are also great for meals/ snacks on the go. They have various cracker/fruit snack things. They also have little microwavable tubs that are finger foods. If you get those though, dump them into another bowl -- they have a metal tear off that can be sharp.

Other Answers:
Cut up celery, carrots, apples and oranges are good.

HOTWINGS. sliced apple, orange, etc


cereal, specifically cheerios worked for us.

Gerber has some meltaway apple and banana bits that my son loved!

I'd avoid carrots -- so doctors recommend waiting until a child is much older because toddlers can't chew them well enough and there's a risk of choking.

Dry cereals like Cheerios are popular with toddlers since they can pick them up easily. Also, cheese in cubes, bananas, whole-grain breads, bagels.

Anything soft, like dry cereal, soft fruit like bananas or canned fruits, string cheese...make sure to mix it up and avoid sugar.
