I love these silicone utensils. I got these because I wanted a fork option that wasn’t metal as my son was only 6-8 months and was having a hard time with the metal pronged forks. These were a great option to be able to stab at the food and have it stay on the fork before it got to his mouth. I wish the handles were longer, but he still uses these well and loves to chew on them in between bites. I would recommend if your kiddo is having a hard time with metal forks
