How To Start the Self Feeding Journey Introduce either Introduce stage one pre-spoon (with raised textures) first so the child can get acclimated to holding the utensil as they soothe their sore gums. They will love chewing on both sides because of the soft silicone! Help them succeed Once your toddler shows signs of wanting to self-feed, pre-load the stage one Goodenia with food and place it on their plate or in their hand. When ready for a larger amount of food, upgrade to stage two. Watch the magic happen Goodenias make learning to self-feed fun and frustration-free. There is no wrong way to hold it, so all they have to do is dip and eat! Designed with a thicker, contoured handle to comfortably fit a child’s hand. As Early as 6 Months After the child can sit unassisted and hold their head up, utensils may be introduced. It is best to begin once they’ve expressed an interest in self-feeding. This can happen as early as 6months, but most kids are truly ready to tackle utensils somewhere between 10to and 14 months. Positive Reinforcement A positive, rewarding experience encourages exploration and results in more positive feeding behaviors while a difficult, frustrating experience discourages the child and can lead to a variety of feeding challenges, including picky eating. Purees, Soft Foods, orphrey-Loaded Solids! Goodenias can be used with a range of foods from purees to soft foods, such as potatoes, yogurt, home blends, and oatmeal. Stage two can even be loaded with solids for the child to grab and eat. Wrist Rotation Development Wrist rotation is a major motor skill that unlocks scooping and balancing, allowing a child to properly use a spoon. This usually occurs around their second birthday. Some signs that your child is ready to graduate to the spoon include scooping around the corners of a bowl and successfully maneuvering the spoon to the mouth with more food. Read more.
