Parenting is hard. Mealtime shouldn’t be. As moms ourselves, we at Kizingo know how difficult it can be to feed your child. Picky eaters and the mess from poorly designed kids utensils are only the beginning. KIZINGO products are designed specifically for young kids, to encourage important motor skills. Allowing children to hold and use their own utensils can encourage self-feeding and the development of healthy mealtime habits. It’s easier to create a healthy habit than change a bad one. Over the last 3 decades, obesity rates in the US have tripled. Of children aged 2-5 years old, nearly 23% are overweight or obese. Among those that are, there is a 60% chance that this will continue into adolescence. The period when kids are learning to self-feed is a crucial period when food habits are established. Patterns created during this period influence eating behaviors all the way into adulthood. It is critical to provide the right tools for children to learn to self-feed successfully. Yet, traditional toddler utensils are a poor match for little hands, whose fine-motor skills are still developing. Long, straight handles make self-feeding frustrating for kids and messy for parents. As a result, parents often take over feeding and may overfeed their little ones in an attempt to ensure their kids are getting the right nutrition. Our kids utensils are uniquely curved to easily fit into toddler’s hands. Our toddler spoons are made in Albany, New York, from FDA approved BPA/PVC/Phthalate-free polypropylene, and with no lead or latex, they have passed the most rigid safety standards. Our design molds and product packaging are produced in the USA. Our customers are our greatest ambassadors. Kizingo will gladly provide a full refund on your unopened order within 30 days of your purchase if you are not satisfied, but we are certain that our toddler spoons will be a fun and valuable tool for your little one during these very important years of growth and development.
Wish the spoon wasn’t so heavy at the top I wanted to like this a lot more than I did. Its definitely the right shape and mold that fits comfortably and securely in my baby’s hands. I think the design can be improved. The problem is that the spoon is top heavy (the grip part), so when she lets go and rests the spoon in her bowl, the spoon constantly flips out. Depending what’s in the spoon, the food will spill out too. Thats the only thing that bugged me a lot when she used the spoon. But she was a lot more comfortable using this in…
So incredibly worth it!! I recently purchased this spoon after a friend suggested it. Honestly I was skeptical until I saw my toddler use it. It has made a huge difference in how she eats!! Normally she would get frustrated with a regular spoon. I couldn’t believe how quickly she ate with the Kizingo. Obviously the issue wasn’t with her being a picky eater (not weird for a toddler) but with the spoon shape! Highly suggest!!!
Good quality My little guy just never took to these. They seem awesome in theory, he just wasn’t having them. They are great quality though so that’s why I’m giving them 4 stars. It’s not their fault my little dude is picky about his flatware! 🙂
