i have the same problem, my one year old insists on feeding herself, which isn't too bad most off the time- most things she can just pick up and eat, it just means a bit more mess at the end. Pasta shapes are a good base, and i can often slip in spoonfuls of sauce as she eats. I also put things onto her fork, and she can pick it up and eat it herself.

i do mini sandwiches at lunch time ( her favourite is banana ones) , and often toast soldiers dipped in humous or avocado.

I have been doing baby led weaning with mine from 6months and have been posting some of the recipes on my blog. Hope it helps. :) http://bighungryfamily.blogspot.com/


All recipes with BLW by them are specifically no added salt and usually fairly quick and easy.

All types of food! My little one hasn't taken food from a spoon in months... So I've kind of perfected the whole 'finger food' thing. Anabel Karmel's recipe book is really handy to get ideas from. Some he likes are:


Loaded potato skins (tuna/sweetcorn or something veggie)

breaded fish/chicken - She actually recommended using cornflakes as a coating, and this is really quick/easy/helpful and weirdly tasty.

cut up veggies he can eat himself (cooked/raw carrots, cucumber)

corn-on-the-cob is a massive favourite.

cream cheese sandwiches

Any type of cooked beans (he can just pick them up and eat them himself)

all types of cheese cut up (mozarella, cheddar)

breadsticks - huge winner

toast with egg on it (I let the egg soak in a little bit and give it to him)

Crepes - I've found if I make these, it can be good for when we're on the go. Just roll some cream cheese/peanut butter/jam on them and then cut them up and give him for lunch if you're somewhere you can't properly feed him.


Hope some of this helps... But like sophiechrisophy says, he'll basically eat anything we eat so sometimes we just make a little extra in the evening (minus salt/sugar) and give him that the next day for lunch.

    • This might be a better picture.  
    • I don't think anyone would object to the examples you have given being given space in the noticeboard (Theatre Peckham is a registered charity) and I think reflect the original intentions behind their introduction. I would not like to see advertisements for purely commercial enterprises e.g yoga studios, cafes, tradesmen which would not be in keeping with the original purpose.
    • Multiple complaints and reports of the leak but no barrier as of 4.30pm today. Shockingly bad form especially as they had TW engineers on site across the road this morning. Fix one, another bursts. Lots of residents without water in this hot weather, just terrible...
    • I agree... perhaps you could also write to our local councillors to point these things out. Never know they might actually reply! Thanks for your help speaking to Monica. She may hopefully have useful contacts re obtaining a key. Completely agree - what's on (which could include some small businesses  such as Theatre Peckham, which I think may be a charity or at least community not for profit? And school fairs type thing..) plus anything the community would find useful, such as free events for the elderly (LinkAge are active in ED and surrounding areas) and lots more.
