Snacks or finger foods for 8 month old

**patricias213** · 07-29-2008, 10:47 PM

Hey Moms!

Im searching for some type of snack or lil munchies for my 8 month old. Ive looked at the gerber cookies but they are 10months and up. My baby eats only 2nds food, cereal, her milk. I would like to introduce some other kinds of snacks to munch on. She has no teeth so something that would be easy on her gums. Someone mentioned rice crispies and cheerios but im not sure if i should give her that? I would love some suggestions that worked for your kids, maybe i can try it out with my babygirl.

I used to give my daughter those vienna sausages, nilla wafers and cut up little peices of Banana. She loved them all.

How about those little puffs that dissolve in their mouths (I think Gerber makes them)--my son is almost 8 months old and has no teeth either and he does really well w/ those. Also, I just started giving him graham crackers...he kindof sucks on them and they dissolve fairly quickly, too! Other than that, I'm at a loss!

I found these puffs from Graduates. They got different flavors and melts in there mouth. I do give her pieces of banana and tiny pieces of grapes but i found the perfect snack for when we're going out.

Thanks for the replies!

My 8 month old has no teeth but her gums are hard and I give her toast or bread to suck. It keeps her quiet
