Bought these for my toddler who is transitioning into eating on his own But hates when his food touches! This is perfect! It helps me see how much he eats and what foods he consistently eats. He isn't ready to eat with utensils yet, but the utensils are used by me when I'm helping him eat things like pasta or yogurt...I wish that additional utensils could be purchased separately but would highly recommend this set. Great value and a great product.
