From the moment I first heard about BLW, I knew it had to be something great. As a mother, I watched with fascination my children perfect their independent feeding skills, and with each passing day, I gained more and more confidence in their skills and competences. Complementing my observation of my own children with expert knowledge, working with parents of infants, and reading scientific publications on BLW only reinforced my belief that this approach to weaning has countless benefits: support for appetite self-regulation, improved motor skills, hand-eye coordination, improved chewing and biting, and shared meals. I encourage you to read the book "Bobas Lubi Wybór" (Boy Likes Choice) – it's a great read to start your baby's journey with weaning!

In my professional practice, I recommend the BLW method to parents of infants. This approach is excellent sensory training. Children not only have the opportunity to explore the different smells and tastes of food, but also its consistency, textures, shapes, weight, and colors. Independent feeding is also a fantastic opportunity to practice fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. The book "Bobas Lubi Wybór" (Boy Likes Choice) is a compendium of parenting knowledge on feeding young children. In my opinion, it should be on every conscious parent's bookshelf.
