Okay, let's be honest, starting solids is exciting and a little bit overwhelming. 🤎
When I was getting ready to start my son on solids, I went looking for a food chart to keep on the fridge. Every single one I found felt so unrealistic! They were packed with foods I was never actually going to feed him, and I couldn't easily see which allergens I still needed to introduce.
So I made my own. This is the checklist I actually use, full of normal, everyday foods and a clear allergen list, so you can see at a glance what you've tried and what's next.
What you'll get
🍎 A 1 page A4 checklist with a Canva template link
🥑 Foods sorted into fruits, vegetables, meats, beans, breads and pastas, and allergens
🍓 3 ticks per food to track each time you offer it
🥜 An allergen tracker, all in one place
🫑 Australian food names, because it's capsicum in our house!
🍐 A short safety note
Make it your own
Pop it into Canva, change the colours, add your little one's name, then print and stick it on the fridge. It's such a sweet way to look back on all their firsts too. 🧸
The little details
This is a digital download, so nothing will arrive in the post. You'll need a free Canva account to edit. It's a tracking tool rather than medical advice, so please chat to your GP or child health nurse about starting solids and allergens.
All prices are in AUD.
