[quote=Anonymous]Just hand him a spoon and he will sort if figure it out. It's really messy for a long time and no actual food gets into the mouth this way for months, but it takes this much practice to figure it out. Mine was using a spoon pretty consistently by 18 months, but much of the food was spilling off the back of the spoon because he would tilt it. By two, he had mastered keeping it flat and even soup and cereal milk was staying on the spoon. Try starting with breakfast and keeping him in his pjs for that meal. For a long time, a meal with a spoon meant a full strip down afterwards and that was less annoying than during a midday meal. [/quote]
