Starting Solids
Starting Solids, the Playful Way
Starting solids is such an exciting milestone — but it can also bring up a lot of questions and worries. At Playful Plates, we believe introducing first foods should be joyful, simple, and centered on your baby’s unique readiness and development.
Whether you’re curious about baby-led weaning, purees, allergens, or how to handle gagging or picky reactions, we’re here to guide you every step of the way. With coaching, resources, and practical tips, we’ll help you feel confident in offering nourishing foods that support growth and a healthy relationship with eating from the start.
