Baby snacks from the start of BLW

Snacks are a good way to appease baby's hunger between morning and evening meals, or before eating the evening meal .

From the start of child-led weaning, it will be possible to offer baby a small gourmet break that will awaken their taste buds to fruits, dairy products , or even nuts and dried fruits .

Baby doesn't show any signs of hunger at snack time? Don't panic! Every child grows and develops at their own pace. Your little one doesn't need a snack yet, but it won't be long. There's no point in forcing them to eat a snack if they're not hungry.

The best baby snack

Pre-prepared snacks available in supermarkets are convenient when you don't have time to cook a proper snack for your baby. However, it's strongly recommended to avoid these snacks. These biscuits or other products may have good ingredients, but you can never be 100% sure what you're offering your baby.

The best snack for your little one will be one lovingly prepared at home. There are many recipes for baby's afternoon treat. To choose the ideal snacks for the week's menu , we recommend opting for recipes with textures suited to your baby's development . Also, look for recipes using seasonal fruits , which will add a naturally sweet flavor to baby's snacks. Don't hesitate to choose recipes with different shapes . Eating seven different pancakes in one week can't be very exciting!

Baby won't eat their snack at home? Choose a recipe that's not too messy and, above all, easy to eat with their fingers.
