As kids learn to feed themselves, they go through lots of different developmental phases that contribute to the occasional mess mothers encounter during mealtimes. From grasping food with tiny hands to wielding spoons, forks and cups, each step requires patience, practice and muscle coordination. Mess is part of the learning process, so brace yourself for a few spills along the way!
