All kids do things on their own schedule. Six months is very early to worry about this, so try not to. I know that’s easier said than done! Just keep offering them regularly, and eventually I’m sure your baby will get interested. If they’re not interested by maybe 10 months then it’s worth talking to your doctor.
All kids reach different milestones at different rates. If she is happy and healthy that is the main thing. I would suggest to keep offering. Pear puree is super sweet and, in my experience, a favourite for babies. My boys were generally not keen on purees though. My oldest loved anything that I was eating from very young (especially if I was expressive about how good it was) – perhaps try serving it on your plate and expressing how good it is before offering some. I did this with solid foods that he sucked and chewed on more than actually ate. My youngest loved strawberries and sweet fruit (I learnt to be cautious of tart strawberries) in the b.box silicon feeders. Also – don’t go too far down the rabbit hole of baby led weaning vs puree vs other methods – be kind to yourself and try to go with the flow, she will get there – and when she does it will be fun and messy!
It’s such a stressful time, but remember food for fun until one. My little guy was resistant, but eventually came around at about 10 months and loved food. Just keep offering, try to not show your stress so she doesn’t pick up on it, and keep doing your best to offer a variety of foods. The food that made a difference for us was a very, very large piece of well done steak.
