When Mike Canapini became a new stay-at-home-Dad, he saw firsthand the challenges of raising 2 preschoolers full time. He soon became determined to take the ease off of parenting woes for everyone by inventing safe and innovative products for children. Thus, the Learn ‘N’ Turn Utensil was born. This smart product is fully adjustable utensil that can be interchanged with either the fork or spoon attachment. You can adjust the angle of the utensil {from the handle}, which makes it easier for your toddler to learn how to feed themselves.
- The only adjustable, interchangeable spoon and fork utensil that helps teach your child eating skills
- Accommodates left or right-handed learners, as it rotates to all angles
- Unique grips on fork help hold food on tines
For toddlers, eating with utensils is quite the challenge. Not only are they not used to it, the bones and muscles in their hands and wrists are still developing, thus making rotation and correct positioning difficult. Yet, they are determined little ones indeed, they persist on trying by themselves. I recall when the Twins were first using utensils, one caught on quickly which my other daughter simply could not turn it far enough. Still to this day, she still has a harder time. I know the technique will come in time, yet I see her frustrated that every second mouthful falls from her spoon.
My Twins were able to try the Learn ‘N’ Turn Utensils, and they have had nothing but success. See, the nice thing about this product is that it grows with baby – I bend the utensil only slightl
y for my Twin that has almost mastered self-feeding. Yet, for my other Twin, her angle is much smaller. So, once they are comfortable with self-feeding and they have more control and dexterity, simply adjust the angle for more of a challenge and keep doing that until you have a straight utensil – and success! I know some 4 & 5 year olds that still don’t have complete control with self-feeding, still having troubles with dexterity. I can’t help but wonder if the Learn ‘N’ Turn Utensil was introduced to the as babies – would they have done better with self-feeding now?
And, I really like the design of the spoon and fork attachment, both compatible with one handle. It really saves on purchasing multiple utensils, and switching them is so easy. One more benefit is that the Learn ‘N’ Turn Utensil is BPA & Lead-free, and completely dishwasher safe. As well, the handles come in a nice selection of colors. Each part can be bought separately if you need it, which is a nice option for customers. The Learn ‘N’ Turn Utensil is a PTPA Award winning product, and a well deserved award winner in my opinion.
