What do you do when you have sweet potatoes and a plastic knife with your tabao food?

Steam sweet potatoes and let your toddler cut them up and eat them for breakfast!

Sophie had a great time and finished up the entire sweet potato! I tried this again with her and Evan in the afternoon and she finished 1/2 a steamed apple and even some carrots too! One more way to get food into these fussy lil toddlers!

Note: Only works with toddlers that can tolerate getting their hands dirty and those who have fascination to cut things up. Evan wasn’t very keen to get her hands sticky so it didn’t quite work with her. Oh and you’ll need to teach them how to use the knife properly. It doesn’t come that naturally but they learn super fast.
