Pears are one of the first fruits offered to babies during baby-led weaning. They're easy to find in stores and, above all, easy to eat with their melt-in-your-mouth texture! Before pears appear in BLW like this pear and almond donut recipe, babies will discover them on their own. Do you know how to safely introduce this fruit to your little one ? From 6 months, the pear should be cut in half with a hole in the center so that babies can easily grasp this slippery fruit. Between 7 and 9 months, babies start to learn to use their pincer grasp (thumb, index, and middle fingers). The pear can be cut into small cubes coated in coconut powder, almond powder, etc., to prevent the pieces from slipping between baby's fingers. Once baby has mastered the pincer grasp, you can offer the pear in small pieces without coating them. Between 9 and 12 months, babies can pick up pieces of pear using a fork. Perhaps at first you will need to help your little one by picking it out of this melting fruit for them.
