Cut an avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop out the avocado from the skin using a spoon. Cut one half into wedges about the size and length of two adult fingers placed together, and mash the other half. Offer both textures to your baby.
Serving avocado in both mashed and wedge forms allows your baby to explore different textures and develop key feeding skills. Soft wedges are easy to grasp, helping strengthen the pincer grasp, while the mashed portion encourages self-feeding and oral muscle development.
