Safe finger food practices: - ensure foods are appropriate size and texture (soft enough to mash with tongue against roof of mouth) - cut round foods like grapes into quarters lengthwise - avoid hard, small items like whole nuts, popcorn, hard lollies - always supervise eating, learn infant CPR and choking response techniques - sit baby upright during eating, - avoid distractions during meals so you can monitor closely. If there are ongoing concerns about potential choking during mealtimes, please approach your paediatric feeding speech therapist or other members in your healthcare team for help.
