eat by its own

At this age, that’s perfectly normal. They can hold food in their hands but won’t be able to control a spoon well yet. I started training with pieces of baby food.. for baby to learn how to pick it up and aim it into the mouth. Then when I started training with the spoon, I held my LO’s hand to show how to scoop the food and turn the spoon to put it into the mouth. This took some time. I hate messes and wastage, so I used this method. Gradually, my toddler got better at it. Then I introduced the fork, and later, toddler chopsticks:)
