Yes, your baby can join in at family mealtimes—right from the start!

Gill Rapley and Tracey Murkett are the creators of baby-led weaning (BLW), a commonsense way to introduce your baby to solid foods. There's no need to struggle with purées and spoon-feeding! Instead, Baby can explore the same foods you enjoy—how they feel, smell, and taste; how to grasp them and chew them—all at his or her own pace.

The Baby-Led Weaning Family Cookbook includes 99 all-new recipes, many suited for families of 4 or more. Plus, Rapley and Murkett review all the benefits of BLW:

  • It's convenient: The whole family eats the same meal—together. No one puts Baby in the corner!
  • It helps Baby learn: BLW builds motor skills, coordination, and confidence.
  • It promotes lifelong health: By teaching Baby to love a variety of foods and to gauge fullness, BLW helps prevent picky eating, and overeating, later on!

        Advocating for a "natural commonsense approach" and "shared meal times," this latest title in the Baby-Led books features journalist Murkett and nurse Rapley (coauthors, Baby-Led Breastfeeding) making it easier for home cooks to get a meal on the table with the baby in mind. The baby, in this case, is at least six months and can sit up. Safety rules are addressed as supervision is key during experimentation. Featured recipes include Thai chicken balls with cucumber salad, crunchy fish fingers, and berry French toast. Other tasty dishes include pesto pasta with green beans and easy fruit loaf. Chapters highlight time-saving steps such as "on the table in less than 40" and "quick prep, eat later." Charts list foods that can be eaten on the go, along with dishes for freezing. These recipes can help with time management so that the baby does not need a different meal and the family can enjoy this social time. VERDICT Babies learn to eat while joining in the family fun with these unfussy meal ideas.--Barbara Kundanis, Longmont P.L., CO
