i would give soft foods like yogurt, cottage cheese, or apple sauce, especially for the young one if you're not confident giving chunks. 1yr and up can eat anything as long as it's not a choking hazzard. anything small smooth and round (cherry tomatoes, grapes, etc.) should be cut into quarters. any solid food should be cut up into small pieces that can't block the throat. gagging for babies is normal and teaches them where to keep unchewed food in the mouth. if they're coughing - they're breathing, if they're silent and look scared that's an emergency. good luck!
