This little spoon - originally intended as a mustard spoon - is small but perfectly proportioned. It has lovely smooth, rounded edges & a very shallow bowl. Give it to children with a bowl or two of shells, beads, pulses or anything else that might be of interest & see how long they will persevere spooning items from one bowl to another. Apart from giving children an opportunity to practice & learn the skills directly involved with the activity, this activity also helps children to develop independence & concentration as well as fine-motor skills & manual dexterity in general. Dimensions (cm): 9(l) x 1.5(w) x 1(d)
