Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Anyone's 19 to 20 month use fork/spoon?

I meant to say will hold the fork, not the good :)

  • DD has been using a fork for about a month. She is actually very good at it.

  • I don't know what happened to my original post (sorry the above made no sense).

    I had originally wrote that he sometimes will hold them both and use the spoon once in a while but not really a fork.  He will hold it in one hand and use the other to eat his food.

    Keep in mind I have a 4 year old too and I don't recall when he started.  I think by 2 but maybe before.
  • Maddie uses both a spoon and fork. She does very well with them at 18 months old.

  • DS does really well with a fork. He is starting to get a little better with a spoon. He used to just turn it upside down but now he is starting to understand how to use it
  • Sometimes DD will use the fork to push food onto her spoon.  She has been using utensils since about 14 months old.

  • DD used spoons at 14 months pretty well and 18 months for forks. Though, she really prefers to use her hands!
  • DS tries, and usually does pretty well. It means more clean-up for me, but whatev. He has fun.

     

  • DD doesn't get it at all. She dips them in her food, and then ends up using her hands. :/
  • Yea, he's been eating with a fork and a spoon for a few months.

  • Mine has for several months - it was pretty messy in the begining but he has gotten the hang of it now!
  • Yes, he's been using a spoon for awhile.  He's good at that now.  The children's fork he has issues with, but he uses the adults ones better. 

  • My DD just turned 18 months and she uses both a fork and spoon. She's pretty good with both of them. Not perfect mind you! But I'd say about 60%-70% of the time it's correct and the food actually makes it into her mouth ;-)
