Babies berry nice fruit salad

This week the babies had the opportunity to explore different types of fruits, they created their very own fruit salad consisting of sliced strawberries, raspberries, banana, oranges and grated apple. The babies sat patiently as they watched the different fruits go from whole to sliced as we cut them in front of them. They enjoyed the texture of the berries and banana as they squeezed them between their fingers. We promoted hand eye coordination and gross motor skills as the babies were encouraged and supported whilst mixing and scooping their creation into their bowls. The babies then enjoyed eating their very own fruit salad for their snack.
