First Time Feeder

I still laugh at this. When is the best age to let your child try to feed themselves. Most people will tell you that it is when they first learn to sit up and want to play with their food. I am thinking that first you need a list of proper supplies. For instance an old sheet or better yet a drop cloth about four feet by four feet to place beneath the highchair. Then you will want to have your camera handy as somethings are just to funny to miss. Make sure you pick foods that are only able to be eaten with a spoon and watch out if they have learned how to throw because you are definetly in for a big surprise. Lights, camera, action!!
