Charlie has been practicing using these chopsticks with finger holes in them:

Tonight he ate half of his dinner with the chopsticks! Without the chopsticks, he probably wouldn't have eaten at all (he's not feeling that great). It was a very exciting dinner for us all haha.
Are you teaching your LO to use chopsticks?

OMG those are the ones I have for my LO!!! Even though she can't feed herself using spoons and forks 
I LOVE POROORORORORORORORRO!
Will definitely teach LO to use chopsticks!

Will be doing so at some point. Maybe after she is 2 since she is good with a spoon and fork now.

@chopsuey119: They are pretty dope chopsticks!
Did you ever have to practice using your chopsticks to move grains of rice from one pile to another? Ah, memories.

The funny thing is that I was never taught to use them. I just did it on my own.

@mrbee: @Rubies: I don't remember practicing either.. I used to hold my chopsticks wrong for the longest time. One day I started using them correctly.

@mrbee: It's pretty good but not perfect - they cross each other and are not parallel like they should be.

not there yet, but we will definitely teach them to use chopsticks. sometimes, certain foods are just easier to eat with chopsticks.

I have the same pair for Liam! Haha 
He likes to say he is teaching me because I am still so awful with them!

Awesome! She plays with them and I take pics of her but that's the extent. She's just getting the hang of a spoon.
@artbee I use chopsticks decently, but the 'wrong way'.

Definitely and I think I need to get those Pororo training chopsticks too!!!! I want to make sure LO holds them properly because I still don't. =( I don't remember my parents teaching me but my parents say I hold them wrong just like my uncle did. I "can" hold them correctly if I want to but I suck at eating with them that way. If only you guys saw how I hold them you would shake your head. Sigh....

We will most definitely teach our future LOs how to use chopsticks... it's in my blood (Korean)... and DH is better at it than I am (he's Caucasian). We eat lots of chopstick-related meals

I want our kiddos to use the chopsticks! Like 808LOVE, I use them ALL the time, but the wrong way. Oops!
