If you do blueberries as a finger food...

C.squared · July 2009

do you cut them up or give them whole? DD loves them puree'd and I've heard so many moms say that they are a good finger food, but they look too big to give whole. Just curious. DD LOVES to feed herself, so I'm looking for new options. TIA.

we cut the big ones in half, but if there are little ones in the package, we will give them whole and DS is fine with that.

DD just ate them this morning. I half them, and the huge ones, I quarter. Today was her first time eating them as a finger food, so probably next time I will do them whole (as she appeared to do just fine with them.)

I cut them because otherwise she swallows them whole.

Same as krys.

No, she does fine with them whole... even the large ones. At first she used to squish them but she just pops them in 4 at a time!

Cut 'em. My nephew, who is nearly 2, just choked on a whole blueberry a few days ago. If he can, so can my 10 month old. Incidentally, they are about the same size, but he's been eating table foods for over a year.
