What finger food can I give my 8 month old instead of Cheerios?

Asked by lilakess (789points) November 30th, 2006
While Cheerios disolve well so she doesn't choke (she has no teeth), I don't really want to be giving her simple sugars, if possible. I've tried the "healthly version of Cheerios but they are too hard. I was thinking of peas maybe, but would love to hear suggestions.

Gerber makes all natural teething biscuits that disolve well. As does Earth's Best which is all organic.

Arrow root cookies by Gerber. They also have puffs in different flavors. Sweet Potato, apple cinnamon, banana strawberry. It’s a change and they love them. I even snack on them at times. They are tasty. All these are in the baby food isle.
