What should I do if I have a potentially transformative research project that does not seem to fit in any NSF program? Contact any program officer who may have expertise in or near the area of the proposed research.
The average age for introducing finger foods to babies is between 7 and 8 months of age. Some babies begin solid foods by eating âfinger foodsâ rather than pureed foods; this is called Baby Led Weaning. When deciding to offer your baby finger foods, here are a few things to help you determine the right time.
Anything from 9 to 10 months is normal to start eating with the hands. Babies eating successfully with spoons or forks before the age of one is not common! As long as your little one is interested in food, and prepared to eat with his fingers - no problem at all. My three year old still sometimes prefers his hands. And if that gets dinner into his tummy, I am happy.
