Apologies if I came off as insensitive. That's what can happen sometimes when significant pieces of info are not given.
No worries. That is why I mentioned it in the response comment. But to be completely honest, the 3 days that I served him lunch before his father passed (and had been out of daycare for 1.5 months) he would not eat lunch here. However, he was not supplied Cheerios, so he was just hungry. On his first day back to daycare, last week, Cheerios were not brought into the picture until I mentioned to his mom that he took all of his food and put it into the pile on the highchair.

Yes, I have tried spoon feeding him. But he shuts him mouth tightly and buries his head into the side of the highchair. He is more then capable of finger foods, as he downs the cereal.

I have NOT tried sprinkling his food with the cereal. But I imagine, that he will just pick them out.
