Title: Easy recipes in an age-appropriate progression
Review: Joachim and Christine Splichal invite us into their home as they raise their twin boys, giving us a taste of good food in a family setting. I like their emphasis on easy preparation, and simple ingredients, presented in an age-appropriate progression. Each chapter helps focus on different stages in a baby's eating development, from the first solid foods on. Although tips are scattered throughout the book, I wish there was a chart in an appendix that outlines suggestions for which foods to start at which age.I agree with Joachim and Christine that children should enjoy meals with their parents, eating age-appropriate versions of what is prepared for the whole family. I have fixed the Splichals' meals for my husband and myself, eagerly anticipating sharing them with our daughter (now 6-months old).The bibliography of recommended readings is especially helpful to learn more about healthy nutrition for babies -- and their families, too!
