Your baby has been on solid food only for a few months, and yet the next phase is already starting: your baby wants to eat by HIMSELF or HERSELF! You are no longer allowed to help your baby or toddler, they want to do everything themself, resulting of course in lots of spilling and mess. But it’s so good for their development! Teach your baby to eat by himself or herself, how should you do that?
This “desire to eat independently” may seem like an impossible phase, but it is actually a really good development! Independence creates confidence, and that’s something you can help your baby develop from an early age.
