Guest guest Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 I have found that a table spoon works best for . He can't use a fork at all. I also put on the spoon the pencil grips you can find at school suplay stores. Cut it on the side so it will grip the spoon. Works with pencils too. > > > My son is 3 and has a hard time using a spoon and fork to eat. He has good motor skills in > general but he can't seem to coordinate getting the spoon to his mouth.

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 My daughter had the same problem, so the OT made a long thick rubber tube that she put her fork or knife through. It work awesome for her. She was able to grip the fork or spoons better. She used it for about 3 months and know she feeds herself. Look on abilitations.com I think they have it there.Angie <kayak_krazi@...> wrote: My son is 3 and has a hard time using a spoon and fork to eat.
