Any tips to ween my boy of eating with hands only?

What about trying preloaded spoons/ forks? Do you all eat together? We started off no pressure and used vegatables and fruit as “cutlery” like dipping celery into yoghurt and houmous and pepper sticks thin slices of apple etc and having boiled carrot batons with meals or broccoli to start, then just let our daughter have a cutlery set to play with at the table, showed her as we ate our food then started adding thick scoopable foods like mash porridge etc onto the cutlery it didn’t matter if it didn’t get eaten or only a few spoons it’s about the habit of it and showing that this is how we eat, they are still very young and proper use of cutlery between ages 2-3 some get it earlier, some don’t, try make it fun and no pressure and they will get it in their own time. We did a lot of mirroring around 15/16months of “stabbing” and “dipping” foods into tomato sauce etc off of a fork, and within 2 weeks she had it down perfect, the scooping is still a little messy…..

…. But we found it best to introduce the cutlery at favourite meals too so LO loves kievs, homemade spag bol, stir fry, boiled carrot discs, peas, so when it was the e favourite meals we would focus on stabbing the favourite food, again, she soon had it down! She loves greek yoghurt, so we started off with the dipping of the early weaning spoons the ones with shapes after we did veg as cutlery, I will attach a photo if I can find, them and this also made it no fuss or pressure as she used it like a teething thing once she realised it had her favourite food on, she kept dipping it, or we would and keep giving it to her. Hope all this helps xx

Time..... It took my girl 4-5m at least to use cutlery for 50% of the meal. Just keep offering and he will start using them more. I'm also not a fan of all the funky cutlery, just use what you use (teaspoon, dessert fork), helps them think they have what you have
