They are made for children with reduced hand strength, poor grip or motor coordination difficulties, including children with SEND or other learning differences who find standard cutlery hard to hold onto.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow They Help\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe added silicone bulk and texture increase the size of a thin cutlery handle, giving a child more surface area to grip and more control over each mouthful. The grips are fully washable and long lasting, making them suitable for repeated use at home, in school dining halls and out at cafés and restaurants. Each grip weighs 30 grams, so they add very little extra weight to the cutlery itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor parents and home use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelp a child hold their own cutlery independently at mealtimes, reducing frustration for both child and parent.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlide onto the family's existing forks and spoons, so there is no need to buy separate adapted cutlery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully washable, so they can go straight into the family's normal washing-up routine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake them along to cafés and restaurants for easy eating out away from home.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor schools\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupport independent eating during school lunches for pupils with reduced hand function or fine motor difficulties.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimple to fit onto a school's own cutlery, with no specialist training needed for lunchtime staff.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable and washable, suitable for repeated use across a term without needing frequent replacement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA low-cost, practical addition to a school's existing SEND or occupational therapy equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor children with SEND or broader learning differences that affect hand strength or coordination, everyday tasks like holding a fork can be tiring or frustrating.
