toddler/kid eating utensils

[CanuckOnaBoat]

at MDR and other food outlets on board Disney Cruise- are there toddler/kiddie-size forks and spoons?

I've never seen any. If it is necessary for your family I would bring your own. (I've been cruising since my youngest was 18 months old).

We bought a decent take and toss set that came in a carrying case when we went to WDW and it worked out well. There were multiple of each utensil, so if it fell or got left behind, we had backups. If we ate somewhere that had plastic utensils, though, DS was fine using them.

They had smaller forks for kids in the MDR's on the Fantasy. I don't remember about the spoons.

thanks. i'm a little surprised/disappointed (given that this is supposed to be geared to kids...) but it's good to know in advance. My daughter is 3 - and adult size utensils are still tough for her to manage.

They gave our kids (2 and 4) the adult dessert fork/spoon. This was fine for my 4 year old -- in fact, when we got home, he complained that his utensils were too small! -- but somewhat of a problem for my 2 year old. We regretted not having bought our own.

We did remember to bring bibs, at least. And when we accidentally left one behind at dinner (happened twice, whoops) it would reappear at dinner the next night in the new restaurant (not washed off or anything, but not lost).
