Day 338 - How to Teach Your Baby to Use a Fork
Today's first time parenting tip - Use patience, imitation and a baby-safe fork to teach you infant how to use flatware
Giving your baby a spoon seems a lot more natural and safe than giving them a fork. After all, the spoon doesn't have sharp tines they can poke their skin or eyes with.
But you can teach them how to use a fork safely if you get them something like the Easy Grip Fork and Spoon Set
. The tines on the fork have been blunted and a little more flexible materials were used to make it safe for you baby's exploration.
Just like feeding with a spoon, imitate the right motions with your fork so they know what to do. Let them learn at their own pace, the normal time for children to master the fine art of eating with a spoon and fork doesn't happen until well into their second year.
