At that age my son loved hummus on a tortilla or pita. I would cut them into little squares. </p> <p>Other things he liked:<br /> -beets (the produce section at out store had them already cooked)<br /> -banana<br /> -avocado on toast<br /> -mango</p> <p>I can't remember anything else, its been so long! But pretty much anything we ate we would give to him, just cut up smaller. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crunchier-foods-for-12-month-old-not-interested-in-table-food#post-2712943 Mon, 20 Mar 2017 11:10:51 +0000 gingerbebe 2712943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Apples<br /> Watermelon when it comes into season<br /> Really crisp grapes<br /> Carrot sticks<br /> Jicama sticks<br /> Corn on the cob<br /> Cucumber<br /> Pizza made out of tortilla so it's really crisp<br /> Pirates booty or snap pea crisps<br /> Rice cakes<br /> Toasted nori/seaweed snacks<br /> Larabars cut into cubes<br /> Freeze dried fruit and veggies<br /> Peanut butter crackers<br /> Fig newtons cut into bites<br /> Chickpeas or beans rinsed out of the can<br /> Try FROZEN peas or corn<br /> Bell pepper strips raw<br /> Mango spears from firm less ripe mangos </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crunchier-foods-for-12-month-old-not-interested-in-table-food#post-2712927 Mon, 20 Mar 2017 11:01:20 +0000 winter_wonder 2712927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD will be 12 months this week, where does the time go?! We haven't been very successful with table foods yet. She seems to do well with crunchier things and bread/cracker type things. Does anyone have suggestions on what else we could be offering her that she might like?</p> <p>likes:<br /> toast with pb<br /> any crackers really<br /> granola bars<br /> raisins<br /> cheese sticks<br /> green beans (I haven't personally seen her eat these, but she does at care)<br /> Yogurt<br /> Cereal </p> <p>tried:<br /> really dislikes the texture of fruit<br /> pasta- not interested<br /> carrots- not interested<br /> peas- squishes them in her mouth and then spits out<br /> Cuties oranges- likes the juice, but spits out rest</p> <p>Any thoughts on what we could be doing differently?! Just keep offering things? It seems like she's getting hungry (e.g., last night she woke up at 4:30 am just starving. I gave her a bottle and then she went back to bed). Maybe I should have offered her solids then? </p>
