This visual guide is overseen by Dr. Yoshitake Sato, who works with children with developmental disabilities at the Otsuka Special Needs School attached to the University of Tsukuba, and is packed with helpful tools to turn "I can't do it" into "I can do it."
Don't spill, don't tip, and don't pour too much. Have the experience of "eating well by yourself."
For left-handed children, choose the left-handed version. This soft spoon is easy to scoop. It was introduced as Nonoji's "Soft Spoon for Toddlers, Left-Handed"!
The reason why your child spills food so much may be because the spoon is not suitable for their dominant hand. For left-handed children, use a left-handed spoon. It has a soft touch, is sized to fit a child's mouth, and has a long handle that makes it easy to scoop. Although it is labeled as for toddlers, it is also large enough for elementary school students. There are also spoons for right-handed children.
