    Gawd I can't remember with DS - probably about a year though?

    DD had them from 6 months I think, we didn't NOT give her anything cos we did BLS, so if DS was having them as a snack - so was she!

    Thanks for all the replies! I did read about the chocking hazard but wasn't sure what age that applied to. I might try a few soft ones and see how she goes. She has no issue with peas and corn which are roughly the same size.

    DD has had them from about 8 months old. I was really eagle-eyed the first few times she ate them - really watching to see how she swallowed. I also squished them down flat for the first month or so of giving them to her - that would soften them a bit as well as make them a little easier to swallow.

    She's 12 months now and goes through a box of them most days now! They're her favourite
