How to prepare each food
Papaya
Choose a ripe papaya that is soft and gives when pressed. Scoop out the seeds, remove the skin, and offer the soft flesh as a finger-length strip to hold, or mashed with a fork.
A finger-length strip of soft flesh to grasp, or mashed smooth. Seeds and skin removed.
Papaya is soft and low-risk when ripe. Scoop out all the seeds and remove the skin first, and use only ripe, soft fruit. Firm, under-ripe papaya is harder to manage.
Yogurt
Offer plain, full-fat, pasteurized yogurt on a spoon or preloaded for self-feeding. Skip sweetened or honey-containing varieties. You can stir in a little fruit purée for flavor, or swirl yogurt into other foods.
Spoonable. Serve on a spoon or preloaded; no cutting needed.
