Hi

My little girl is 10 and a half months old - I am trying to break the habit of giving her cooked foods for lunch and tea.

She loves toast however I am trying her with sandwiches and she just doesn't seem interested - not really sure what to give as a filling. Or what can I give instead of toast, sandwiches etc. I have tried her with pitta breads dependant on her mood as to whether she will take it.

I havea 4 year old son who is an extremely fussy eater and I know this is probably down to me not experimenting enough when he was younger.

Any advice please ???

I have a 13 month old and 4 and a half year old sometimes they have toasted tortillas with ham and cheese, cheese omlettes or whatever you want to put in, cheese on toast, spaghetti hoops and toast, hope that helps x

my Freddie is already bored of sandwiches!! (crikey he's got a lifetime of sandwiches ahead of him - lol). So i give, crackers, breadsticks, raisin bread, malt loaf, teacakes, scones, muffins, or just a slice bread & butter. His fav tea is fried egg on toast & sometimes eggy bread. my sister had just recommended wraps but not tried yet.

You can try to make Sandwiches with different choices. Like with veggies, cheese and many more things. I am sure your kids must like that.

I've just started giving my 10 month old boy cream cheese and baby vegemite in his sandwich at lunchtime.
I started off giving him the crust of my raisin toast and now he seems to prefer bread or toast crusts to the bread part! LOL
He also likes avocado, but spits out just about everything else atm.
He's a bit slow with moving to more lumpy food, funny as he's had 8 teeth since 6 months old!
