when did your children start using utensils? I've tried giving my 16 month old utensils here and there, but honestly it feels like she's dropping most of them vs actually eating them, and then I feel bad/stressed that she didn't eat enough. if we feed her ourselves directly - she eats so well!! and if it's a food that can eat with her fingers - she eats most of it really well too. but if it's something like rice or more mushy/crumbly, then obviously it's harder for her to eat with her hands. I wonder if maybe I haven't tried hard enough with her utensils or simply not teaching her properly? lol. any tips or even suggestions that you used for utensils and when you started would be helpful! thanks!
