It's not often that kids are encouraged to play with their food, but with these child-friendly crocodile tongs, they can do so while finishing up the food on their plate. Hoping to change the way children interact with food, these tongs serve as utensils that offers support, while enabling a child to achieve a higher level of independence.
Made for tiny fingers, the devices are simple to use, and easy to pick up, but remain sturdy enough to ensure a meal may be completed with limited mess. The design features a thumb-fitted metal ring for additional support, helping a child hold the utensil, without the help of parents.
In addition to their form, these tongs feature a bold, eye-catching design that adds a cautiously playful element of fun to the dining experience.
