[Mother's Corn] Rice2SeeU Practice Chopsticks, Stage 1 (Yellow)

The ring-free first chopsticks for little hands. A soft silicone helper does the work of a hinge, so toddlers can learn the pinching motion without a finger ring to slip out of. Stage 1 is the beginner version: short, baby-length chopsticks with grippy tips.

Why you'll love it

• No finger rings: a pincer-style design that is easier to put on, take off and keep clean.
• Grippy "crocodile-mouth" tips: zigzag tips with 8 raised dots hold small, soft foods such as cheese.
• Baby length: a short body that suits small hands and small mouths.
• Easy to wash: no tricky loops to scrub. Take the silicone helper off and rinse.
• Plant-derived body: made from a plant-based material (PLA biomass). Tested and reported free of bisphenols and microplastics.
• Made in Korea.

Suggested age: about 18 to 48 months. Every child is different.

How to use: hold the chopsticks about halfway down, so the helper does not touch your hand. Wrap your thumb and index finger around the middle and rest the chopsticks on your ring finger. The silicone acts as a lever for a pinching, open-and-close motion.

Care: wash before first use. Take off the silicone helper and wash by hand with a soft sponge and mild detergent, then dry well so no water stays inside the helper. Do not use a dishwasher, a sterilizer, a microwave, boiling water or steam. Too much sterilizing can shorten the product's life.

Cautions: use only under adult supervision and only for eating. Do not let your child play with the chopsticks in their mouth. A child's teeth can wear the silicone helper, so check it often. Throw away any cracked or broken piece at once. Tiny molding marks or dots are normal and not a defect.
