Parent tip
Try rotating fruits such as banana, apple, pear, peach, or mango puree to introduce different flavors naturally without added sugar
Parent note: introduce new foods one at a time, adjust texture for your baby’s readiness, and check with your pediatrician for allergies, medical conditions, or feeding concerns.
