This four-color companion cookbook to Baby-Led Weaning includes over 130 delicious recipes for the whole family that will help your little one grow into a conscious and confident eater.

In Baby-Led Weaning, public health nurse (and mom) Gill Rapley and journalist (and mom) Tracey Murkett introduced a commonsense, easy, and enjoyable approach to feeding your child--skipping purées and allowing your baby to participate in family meals right from his or her first introduction to solid foods. This natural method helps infants develop handeye coordination, learn appetite control, and enjoy a variety of foods--and saves parents from labor-intensive purées and mealtime battles.

Now, this companion cookbook gives parents the recipes and the confidence to create exciting and enjoyable mealtimes that encourage little ones to develop food skills at their own pace. Full of healthy and delicious meals for the whole family, and with color photos and illustrations throughout, this cookbook also includes simple advice on which foods to start with, essential at-a-glance information on nutrition and food safety, ideas for quick snacks and lunches as well as desserts and family dinners, and anecdotes and quotes from parents who follow baby-led weaning.
