Review
It sounds like common sense: after all, would you want to be strapped into a high chair and force-fed spoon after spoon of bland vegetables? It's surely much more exciting to be able to exercise a bit of control over your diet. --Guardian

From the Publisher
Everything you need to know about baby-led weaning - the latest buzz in parenting circles - from leading health visitor Gill Rapley

From the Back Cover

Forget baby purées, ice cube trays and weaning spoons, and simply let your baby feed himself

Baby-led Weaning explodes the myth that babies need to be spoon-fed and shows why self-feeding from the start

of the weaning process is the healthiest way for your child to develop.

Baby-led Weaning is a common sense, easy and enjoyable approach to feeding your child, and it:

• Helps to develop your baby's natural abilities, including hand-eye coordination and chewing

• Allows your baby to join in with family meals right from the start of the weaning process

• Encourages independence by allowing your baby to experiment with foods at his own pace

• Makes mealtimes more enjoyable and battles less likely

Baby-led Weaning is a practical and authoritative guide to introducing solid food, enabling your child to grow up

a happy and confident eater.
