Question

When shoud I have my 20 mounth old son self feed him slef FROM A SPOON?I?

Answer 1

They should be able to feed themselves from a spoon before 20 months...

Answer 2

RIGHT NOW!!! You are delaying his motor skills by not allowing him to feed himself. He should already be using a baby fork too. Even though it is messy deal with it!!!

Answer 3

You need to start now!  I would open a garbage bad and put it under his high chair and let him have at it. He will pick it up right away and the more practice the less mess!  But yes, he should have already been doing this!

Good Luck!

Answer 4

Now, you start introducing it at 12 months old with a little help but at 18 months they should be able to start really feeding themselves although it may still be a little messy.

Answer 5

dont worry if your little ones not yet just encourage him when he does my daughter still sometimes come to me to finish her spoonfed desert or such when she cant be bothered and shes 3yr (she can actually feed herself)
