no - start with vegetables first. if you start with fruit it's harder to get them to like things that are less sweet. [ Reply | More

rice cereal is really gross - my kids both hated it. I always stirred some fruit into oatmeal and that seemed to work fine. [ Reply | More

try something else. Those cereals taste like paste. would you want to eat it? Give some fruit or veggie puree or try some yogurt. You don't have to give cereal you know. There aren't really any rules for this stuff. [ Reply | More
