two questions, i guess more about behaviour than actual food ....
- when should a todler start using utensils? we've started trying to get DS to use a fork and spoon but all he does is either pick the food off the implement and use his fingers to feed himself, or throw fork or spoon and floor and use his fingers to feed himself.
- at 14 months, if they throw their food on the floor, is it ok to say "that's it, no more" and not give them anything else so that they learn not to do it, or should you really keep offering different alternatives until they actually eat something?
thanks in advance
