I really miss those years when my daughters were just learning about foods, their textures, smells, and, of course, their tastes. I miss the days when my daughters squished through their food and tossed food everywhere when I let them explore on their own. Those days are long gone for me, but for you who have babies now, there is a new baby recipe book that you should definitely check out with your babies. And, that's important.

Eeebees Mix and Match: Adventures in the Kitchen for Baby and You is a board book for your child that teaches them about foods and colors, and while they're exploring through the pages you learn new recipes for baby food that are nutritious and easy for babies and toddlers to eat.
Additionally, there is an informative CD, co-produced by Parents TV, that explains the philosophy behind Eebees and serves as a how-to video for the recipes shown inside the book.

What makes Eeebees Mix and Match: Adventures in the Kitchen for Baby and You a great read for parents and kids: The food is unique for kids and opens them up to out-of-the-ordinary finger foods that far exceeds crackers and cereal like tofu and avocados. Plus, your child gets to see gorgeous photos of other children having a colorful good time with finger foods, bowls, and kitchen utensils.
Natalie found this book at the library and refused to let it go. I'm not sure if it was the character on the cover or the baby or the dishes and food, but she carried around with her until it was time to go. Once we got it home, we read it once and she hasn't asked to see it again, even though its been around. I like the idea of this book. It has several recipes for baby friendly foods that baby can help make. Baby's role is usually mashing. Natalie is a bit old for this book, since we don't want to encourage her to smash up her food at this point. However, it is tempting to give some of it a try because of the sensory fun.
The book included a cd or dvd of some sort. We didn't use it, obviously, since I don't even know which it was.
