squishy banana thoughts - a tip from Ari's high chair

Raw fruit chunks are too slippery for little fingers to pick up (hell, it's too slippery for my fingers to pick up). Crush up a teething biscuit, cookie, cracker, etc. and roll the fruit around in it. Makes it a lot easier, and less frustration-inducing, to pick up. This also works for those times you've had one too many during dinner and are trying to eat with your fingers.

Huh.

Maybe everyone else already knows this trick.

And here I thought I was finally ahead of the game.

Shucks.

I didn't know that, so thank you very much! Now do you have a trick to get Emerson to eat green beans? :)
