As a dad raising a 15-month-old, we’ve been practicing self-feeding at every meal lately. Finding utensils that are safe, easy to hold, and actually help my toddler succeed has been a big priority. The Munchkin Raise™ Toddler Fork & Spoon Set has been one of the better options we’ve tried, especially with its smart design that keeps the tips off the table for better hygiene.Pros:1. Easy to clean and sanitize — it handles the dishwasher perfectly without fading or wear, which makes quick sanitizing super convenient for busy toddler parents.2.Built-in base keeps the fork/spoon tips lifted off the table, helping keep things cleaner and more sanitary — especially useful when my toddler drops utensils constantly.3.Ergonomic, chunky handles that are easy for small toddler hands to grip, making self-feeding a lot less frustrating.4. Stainless-steel tips scoop and spear food better than fully plastic utensils, helping my toddler actually get food into his mouth.Cons:1. The stainless-steel fork prongs can feel a bit sharp for very early self-feeders, so supervision is important.2. Slightly heavier than plastic-only utensils because of the built-in base, so my toddler sometimes drops it when she gets tired.If you’re feeding a toddler around 12-24 months and want a utensil set that supports self-feeding, is well-designed, and offers a little extra hygiene protection (tip stays off table/floor), I’d recommend the Munchkin Raise set.
