Review: TinyTongs

Have you seen these? TinyTongs are small durable tongs for children created to help take the mess and stress out of meal time. The design helps kids put more food in their mouths and less on themselves or on the floor and makes meal time fun for everyone!

My twins aren’t used to using actual utensils yet so I pretty much just let them get the feel for these TinyTongs and “practice” with them to see how things went. Right now they’re at the stage where their fingers are much easier to use than utensils.. so food goes everywhere but in their mouths! I will never forget the first time we had spaghetti! Why I thought it would be a good idea to put food on a plate I have no idea lol, spaghetti was everywhere.. from the dog to to the cabinets!

My son is more interested in learning how to use utensils to eat than my daughter is.. so I let him try out the TinyTongs first. He took a good look at, moving it around to see what it was all about and then figured out that it the tongs closed when he put a little pressure into it. At the time he had it in his mouth and was chewing on it, so when he squeezed the tongs together, he ended up catching his tounge.. but it must not have hurt because he thought it was pretty hilarious.

After a little while of playing, he had it figured out. He was scooping up his food with the TinyTongs and having no problems at all. I was amazed and had my husband come in to the kitchen so he could check it out for himself. We praised him and told him what a good job he was doing and he just ate it up! It was darling. Once my daughter caught wind of what was going on she decided it was her turn to try out the tongs, but she just wanted to play with them and had no interest whatsoever in actually using them.

With twins we usually have to buy two of most things, just so there is no competition or fighting between the two. Since our son loves the TinyTongs and uses them.. we plan on getting a second pair for my daughter so that when she’s ready she can use the TinyTongs as well.
