A small set of practical accessories makes cleanup easier while you focus on your child.<\/p>\n<h2>A spoon for feeding<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/speli.ee\/product\/britton-heat-sensing-weaning-spoon-red\/\">Britton heat-sensing feeding spoon<\/a> has a long handle that helps reach into a jar. Its tip turns white above 42\u00b0C. Treat the color change as an extra warning, not proof that food is safe when the tip stays colored. Stir and check the food&#8217;s temperature yourself before offering it.<\/p>\n<h2>A bib for everyday use<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/speli.ee\/product\/britton-easy-roll-bib-green\/\">Britton Easy-Roll bib<\/a> is soft and rolls up for storage. Wash it in warm soapy water or on the dishwasher&#8217;s top rack as instructed. Let it dry before rolling it up, and keep strong chemicals away from it.<\/p>\n<h2>Let your child take part<\/h2>\n<p>Offer manageable amounts and allow pauses. Watch for signs that your child has had enough. <a href=\"https:\/\/speli.ee\/product\/britton-food-feeder-6m-berry\/\">Britton Berry food feeder, 6m+<\/a> is an optional way to explore suitable foods from its stated age of 6m+; it does not replace learning to handle other appropriate textures.<\/p>\n<h2>Keep the meal safe<\/h2>\n<p>Seat your baby upright and stay with them throughout the meal. Prepare food for their age and abilities. Put feeding accessories away afterward rather than leaving them as unattended toys.<\/p>\n<h2>Speli products mentioned in this guide<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/speli.ee\/product\/britton-heat-sensing-weaning-spoon-red\/\">Britton heat-sensing feeding spoon \u2192<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/speli.ee\/product\/britton-easy-roll-bib-green\/\">Britton Easy-Roll bib \u2192<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/speli.ee\/product\/britton-food-feeder-6m-berry\/\">Britton Berry food feeder, 6m+ \u2192<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Read more<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/speli.ee\/choosing-your-babys-first-cup\/\">Choosing your baby&#039;s first cup \u2192<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/speli.ee\/shop\/?shop_group=baby\">View all baby and child products \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"speli-litter-advice-link\"><a class=\"notranslate\" data-no-translation data-no-dynamic-translation href=\"https:\/\/speli.ee\/advice\/baby\/\">View baby and child advice \u2192<\/a><\/div>\n<p class=\"speli-baby-source\">Further information: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/best-start-in-life\/baby\/weaning\/safe-weaning\/choking-and-gagging-on-food\/\">NHS: Choking and gagging on food<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Piem\u0113rota karot\u012bte un viegli mazg\u0101jams priek\u0161auti\u0146\u0161 atvieglo pirm\u0101s \u0113dienreizes.
