    This book is full of so many great ideas for first foods for baby. I was so stuck on what to give my little one at first and now she eats a large variety of foods. Great recipes and they don't take long to prepare at all, great for freezing too and lots of stuff I already have in the weekly shop so I am not going out of my way to buy extra ingredients for one meal!!

    Picked his book up free from Boots using a coupon they sent me. Its a good read with lots if helpful recipes. The only thing I felt confused with is it said to give more meals per day than what the NHS guides say online. Overall handy to read for a first time mum with no weaning experience.

    This is the prefer book for easy weaning recipes, especially when your just starting out and not sure what to do. All the recipes taste great and are perfect sizes for little tummies. The book is also easy to clean so if you get some food on it it’s easy to clean off.

    We received this book through a parenting club and it quickly became my bible! I still use it today to help with new flavour combinations. It’s set out in easy to follow stages and most of the meals could be family favourites.

    We got this book from boots back when our baby was nearly 6 months old. It really gave us the confidence we needed to start weaning as we were completely clueless. At the back of the book it has a map kind of thing that shows you what stages you should be at with weaning at what stages of their age. It gave us some fantastic recipes ideas that we could change and elaborate. I feel this book has helped ensure our baby is not a fussy eater. As it gives many different food! Would definitely recommend, the only thing I would like is for there to be an extra section for baby led weaning as it mainlt focuses on the purées and mashed foods

    Got this free from a voucher I got from Boots. Fab for ideas for weaning foods and wild recommend going to get it free or even buying it as it wasn’t much to actually buy. The recipes are easy to make and don’t include loads of ingredients so are cheap to make too and freezable so you can make a load up and freeze them.

    This book looked amazing, and had a good easy to understand layout. The meals in this book however were weird combinations and not meals you would normally cook for yourself. Meaning more work to cook for the whole family.

    I like this book. Its colourful. Informative. And it shows me easy recipes. Only thing id have to complain about is the fact information is everywhere. You have recipes in stages of food but then you have random facts about and also a chart designed like a board game to show what your child can eat at what i age. I dont like that concept. I prefer a simple chart. It took me a while to understand it.

    Great book, easy to follow recipes. Make you love to use a wide variety of food. Interesting combinations of flavors my baby loved it. Hope to use with my second one. Reasonable price book and must have for new mums and dads. I also like the tips given on the recipes that you can use different ingredients to make more interesting.
