Pros: A wide variety, sales often, Gerber sends coupons Cons: Some of these you may be able to make yourself for less money
Having our first child was a miracle and a blessing. I immediately mentally made out my list of "Never's" (I will never give in to crying, I will never use a pacifier, etc)In my list of "never's" I had decided I was never ...
Recently, the grocery store where I usually shop had a great sale on Gerber Graduates items and I bought a wide variety of the items so that my baby could try them out and we were both pleased! In fact, I bought at least one of every product that the...
Pros: High in protein, they travel well, they are so soft they're hard to choke on Cons: They smell awful, they're difficult to get out of the jar without making a mess
Before I became a mother, I used the term "I'll never..." an awful lot: "I'll never give my child a pacifier..." (I gave him one when he was less than 48 hours old), "I'll never run my life around my child's nap schedule..." (watch me rush home...
Pros: Little mess; easy for little fingers to pick up; tastes great; low fat; convenient. Cons: Expensive; high in added sodium; must be drained before eating.
Oh, happy day! I've finally found something my picky 14 month old toddler will eat. As we first introduced solid foods when Tristan was around 5 to 6 months of age, he'd eat just about anything that was placed into his mouth. Fast forward a few...
Pros: The idea of sneaking veggies in a cracker Cons: beets and sweet potatoes, kids do not like them
Gerber Graduates for Toddlers Veggie Crackers come in a four ounce box selling at $1.79 and up. They are shaped with six edges the size of a quarter. The color is a nice mixture of tomato and celery with eight little holes in each cracker. ...
Pros: More texture, better taste, variety available for older babies Cons: Can be overpriced, messy, and loaded with sugar or sodium
My 10-month-old daughter just recently started refusing to eat her baby food. I cannot say that I blame her, because it is pretty bland. After cutting her fourth tooth, she wanted more taste and texture than the Gerber Stage 3 for babies had to offer....
Pros: Perfect for tiny fingers, great variety Cons: Don't they come in adult portions?
When my daughter was around 10 months old our family had to move across the country. The move was very stressful on my daughter. It effected her moods, her sleep patterns and even her eating. She stopped eating as a result. She would clamp her mouth shut...
Pros: Have lots of added nutrients like zinc and iron. Cons: Some just don't look or taste very appealing!
My son is quite independent. When he reached about the age of one, he decided he didn't want mommy and daddy to feed him anymore. It was time to take matters into his own hands. This, of course, meant no more strained peas and runny carrots. It was...
My son is now 15 months and thankfully food is becoming less of an issue than it has been in the past. As a young toddler Seth has been fussy with his "people foods" and has downright refused actual baby foods. Anyone with any toddler experience will not...
Pros: Travels well, added vitamins and minerals. Cons: Meat sticks have a strong smell and microwave meals too much sodium.
When my daughter started eating regular table food, I needed to find a convenient way to provide her with all the necessary vitamins and minerals needed in her diet. Gerber Graduates proved to be a convenient solution to my needs.
Gerber has always been a trusted name in our home. Although they didn't have the graduate line 13 years ago when I had my first child, I always had piece of mind in using Gerber baby foods, cereals and juices. I am going to try to combine the Gerber...
Pros: variety, age appropriate, great finger feeding foods Cons: expensive, gummy snacks are a choking hazard
Recently, my son started to refuse to be fed. He's throw a fit, and slap the spoon away, reaching for the bowl of food in my hands. Now that he has found the joys of feeding himself, I have found the horrors of fixing good finger foods for him to eat....
I wasn't prepared for the transition away from baby foods. I guess in my mind they would just start eating hot dogs and macaroni & cheese like I remember from my childhood. I hadn't really considered that those weren't very healthy foods, and I'd...
