"Look At Me, I am So Civilized Eating with Utensils!"


We purchased a set of three suction bowls to help Des in the process of learning to eat with utensils. The fact that the bowl stays in place helps out as tiny hands learn to maneuver a spoon or fork into a bowl while minimizing the mess (aka flinging bowls from highchair trays). The bowls stay in place until an adult breaks the suction by pressing a special tab. Des was given yogurt and boy did it end up getting messy. Even though the bowl stayed in place on his tray so no yogurt ended up on the floor, Des managed to get a lot of yogurt in his hair...by rubbing his hair with the spoon of course.

how clever! i need to get those suction bowls for kadyn. she gets frustrated as she's trying to scoop up something when the bowl moves with her spoon.
