Guest guest Posted November 25, 2001 Report Share Posted November 25, 2001 Hi, We used sliced bananas to teach our NT 2 year old. They stick to the fork and are easy to stab. Valeri " Forkin' Foods " Hi all -- My son's county preschool teacher is going to start a new unit at snacktime so the 3 and 4-year-olds can gain better control of their utensils, specifically forks. She is pro-diet (after witnessing infractions last spring, she's sold on GFCF for !), and has asked me to supply her with a list of GFCF foods that are " forkable. " That way all of the parents, even non-GFCF, can contribute something to snacktime with no worries of infractions or cross-contamination issues. We have ruled out canned fruits, as they are awfully slippery and would be frustrating for the kids. I know there is a GFCF Vienna Sausage out there (anyone recall the brand?). Is there anything else " forkable " that would be available at your regular grocery store? Thanks, BJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 25, 2001 Report Share Posted November 25, 2001 did very well with sliced up Hebrew National hotdogs but that might be difficult at a preschool to prepare.. What about marshmallows (if you aren't worried about corn issues), or fresh peaches, bananas, or other soft fruits? ~ SAHM to: Dana (3.5, NT) and (2.5, autistic, HI) http://www.butcherfamily.freeservers.com " Forkin' Foods " Hi all -- My son's county preschool teacher is going to start a new unit at snacktime so the 3 and 4-year-olds can gain better control of their utensils, specifically forks.
