  1. Where's your mum?  :)


  2. Large - soup spoon

    Medium -  tablespoon

    Small - teaspoon

  3. The tablespoon is the larger one, usually for soup. The teaspoon is the one you probably eat with regularly. Does the other one have a jagged edge at the top? That's a grapefruit spoon. Does it have holes? That's a slotted spoon, to let the juices drip out when you're serving things. Is it a very large spoon? That would be a regular serving spoon.

    Good luck!

  4. You're kidding, right?

  5. Tea spoon is the smallest you have

    The Medium size one not to big or too small is tablespoon

    and the big one maybe a serving spoon depends how big?

  6. if you have a really small one its a baby spoon next size up teaspoon next up tablespoon.i hope that helps..

  7. Ok - we will need a little more info than that.  There are thousands of spoon sizes.  Here are a few basic ones that may help you though...

    Dessert spoon.  A regular sized oval spoon that is generally used for cereal/breakfasts or (obviously) desserts.

    Soup spoon.  Basically the same size (maybe a little bigger) version of the dessert spoon but it is round in shape instead of oval shaped.

    Serving Spoon.  This is basically a large version (twice as big) of the dessert spoon used for serving salads, pasta, etc.

    Soup Ladel.  A deep, round spoon for serving soups and stews.

    Teaspoon.  A small version of the dessert spoon.  Used for serving and stirring sugar and milk into tea.

    Coffee spoon.  Similar size to a teaspoon (maybe a bit bigger) but round in shape like the soup spoon.  Used for serving and (sometimes) stirring coffee, sugar and milk together.

  8. If you're just referring to the spoons in a general cutlery set, you will dessert spoons - the large, oval shaped ones, soup spoons - the large, round ones, and teaspoons - the little ones you generally use for measuring sugar into tea, coffee etc.
