The pediatrician asked us to keep trying to get them used to eating from a spoon. It actually went pretty well until they decided to help us by pushing the food in with their hands. So, to distract them, we gave them each a spoon to play with. This only led to them trying to feed themselves by putting their spoon into their mouths. But, eventually, they got the hang of it. So, dinner time is a little longer, a little more messy, but definitely more fun in our house now.
