Finger Foods for Babies
Quick answer
Soft enough to squash: ripe banana spears, steamed carrot sticks, avocado slices, soft omelette strips, well-cooked pasta — always supervised.
- Avoid hard rounds and whole nuts
- Sit upright and watch them
- Size for their grasp
Finger food safety is supervision + texture
If it doesn’t squash easily, wait or cook longer. Ask your clinician about allergens and timing for your baby.
