[quote=Anonymous]All, and generally the same set we use (I keep her old ones around so I can pack them for lunches and snacks since I don't want to take real flatware for that). She doesn't know how to use a knife yet but we will give her a regular dinner knife if she wants one so she can practice. It's not sharp. We are getting her a set of "kid knives" for Christmas this year and DH is going to start teaching her proper knife skills in the kitchen. We figure it's a win-win because now is such a good time to work on fine motor skills with utensils (she still doesn't have a tripod grip for writing implements but getting closer), and plus it's an important skill she has to learn. But she'll be under very close supervision and only allowed to use the special kid knives until she's very proficient and old enough to understand all the safety involved.[/quote]
