Description

Mealtime is a somewhat easy and simple process during the first four to six months of a babys life. But soon, as babies start making the transition from breast milk and formula to solid foods, parents find themselves asking some difficult questions:

When do I introduce solid food to my baby
Which foods are the most appropriate for what age
Should I follow a particular feeding schedule
How much food should I make for my baby How do I prepare it
What do I feed a sick baby
Is it ok to give my baby food in the car If so, what

From the co-author of the internationally bestselling 4 Ingredients series, Kim McCosker, comes the definitive book on cooking for babies. BABY BOWL: Home-Cooked Meals for Happy, Healthy Babies and Toddlers answers all of these questions, and is the ultimate guide to helping parents establish healthy eating habits during this transitory time rather than relying on expensive jars of prepared baby food.
