Snack Ideas for 12 month old

Hello Mom,

Looking for snack ideas for 1 year old with only 6 teeth...4 at the top & 2 at the bottom.  I have friends who feed this 1 year olds big sandwich pieces and hard foods. Saying they will learn to eat it. I' m just nervous my LO may choke. Any food ideas will help.

Thanks Moms :-)

    I haven't really offered too many "real foods" to DS but he eats

    fruits/veggies

    english muffins with cheese (toasted)/regular grilled cheese

    chicken

    mozzarella/cheddar cheese

    pasta

    goldfish 

    pancakes 

    He's also had the basic things like puffs, mum mums, hard teething cookies/biscuits. He has 4 teeth right now (2 more top ones coming in though) but I haven't worried if things are hard because he'll use his teeth to chew on it or he'll suck on it so it gets soft. Just offer a small piece and see what happens. I've been dying to give him pieces of a sandwich but he's real iffy with bread so I haven't yet. I've read on here a lot of moms just give whatever they eat at dinner. I wouldn't worry too much if LO isn't ready you'll know.

    You already got a good list from the other posters but we do pouches for snacks sometimes - ex mango by happy baby.

    My 1 year old has 3 teeth (1 bottom, 2 top) and sandwiches are one of his favorite foods!  But we use them for lunches, not snacks.

    For snacks I love:

    *fruit (today he has blueberries and strawberries)

    *veggies (his favorite for snacks are grape tomatoes.  He'll put away almost a pint)

    *cheese

    *yogurt drops (I make these myself by making drops of yogurt on a cookie sheet and freezing)

    * freeze-dried fruit (I usually keep this in my diaper bag for snacks.  Trader Joes makes great ones with no additives)

    * oyster crackers (I know a ton of people use goldfish crackers for their kids, but they are SO high in sodium!  The oyster crackers I buy have very little sodium so I feel better about giving them as snacks)

    * yogurt covered pretzels

    My LO was on solid food eating everything I ate, the same size pieces I eat with zero teeth. I don't give LO anything special
