Pigeon Self-Wean Spoon & Fork

Pigeon Spoon & Fork Set is developed based on research and observational studies on how toddlers learn to self-wean. It allows them to have fun while learning to feed themselves.
When toddlers begin to grab food with their hands, they are at the stage of self-weaning.
Start by guiding the toddlers on how to hold cutlery. The Spoon and Fork are light and easy to grip. Hence, toddlers can easily hold the cutlery without stress as they learn to self-wean.

Getting started:

Begin practising with a spoon.
When the toddlers are able to use the spoon without over-inserting into their mouth, they can start to practice using the fork.
