Sounds like you and K are ready. BLS is fun for them they love the textures! I didnt do BLS til my DD2, and shes a great eater, when she was K's age she loved toast with avocado (spread on top thin mash) cut into squares or soldiers, and sprial pasta she loved as she could pick it up and also banana just to hold and as the other girls mentioned rusks were a big hit and arrowroot bickies.
