Kae Cherie how to feed a toddler: Take first spoon. Put it in her left hand. Take second spoon. Put it in her right hand. Take third spoon. Feed. Take the spoon she drops to grab yours. Feed. If desperate, drop bits of finger foods on the table so she grabs those instead of your spoon full of puree. Be prepared for mess. Yuck! 7 Sep
