Do your children eat the little cereal pieces that melt-in-mouth called puffs? If so, What age did they start eating these?

What can I do next?

I started using those with my daughter around 6months. She has always been WAY more interested in what we eat instead of what she should eat.
She loves them.

we've attempted the puffs periodically for about a month or 2 (he's 9 months now). Just in the last week he has begun to eat 4-5 at a time without gagging. :)

Not anymore (he's 3), but he LOVED them when he was first learning how to "eat" table foods- I think 7 or 8 months old. He always sits at the table for meals and I would put a handful on his tray so he could "eat" too!

About 8 months

My husband and I weren't sure how well they would melt, so we tested it on our own first. They do melt with some saliva.

I started my kids on those at about 7-8 months. I prefer them over Cheerios for a first finger food. They really do melt quickly. I would give them just one at a time for awhile until I could see that they could handle having them without choking.

My daughter started eating them around 8 months. If you have Target stores near you, they carry a brand that is organic and has less sugar/additives.

About 5 months. If your child has trouble with these, because they are small and hard to pick up, there are also melt in your mouth crackers called baby mum mums which are sometimes an easier place to start, especially if little one has a real independent streak.

Yes, both my boys loved Puffs! I started them around 7-8 months. I kept a really close eye on them right away for choking, but they got the hang of them really quickly!

Most parents don't know how toxic and unhealthy cereal or puffs of any kind are for kids, esp little children.
