Baby-Led Weaning: The Essential Guide to Introducing Solid Foods�and Helping Your Baby to Grow Up a Happy and Confident Eater

I Can Feed Myself! explodes the myth that babies need to be spoon-fed and shows why self-feeding is the healthiest way for a child to develop. The authors show how this commonsense, easy, and enjoyable approach to feeding children helps to develop a baby’s natural abilities, including hand–eye coordination and chewing, and allows a baby to join in with family meals right from the start of the weaning process. It also encourages independence by allowing a baby to experiment with foods at his or her own pace and makes mealtimes more enjoyable and battles less likely. I Can Feed Myself! is a practical and authoritative guide to an innovative and exciting new method for introducing solid food, one that enables a child to grow up a happy and confident eater.
