As a parent, feeding my child between 6 months to 2 years was one of the most confusing phases—what to start with, how much to give, and whether it’s healthy enough. The First Spoon became a true companion in this journey. The book simplifies everything about baby’s first foods, weaning, and toddler nutrition, with practical tips and easy recipes that actually work in daily life.
