Feeding for the child with cerebral palsy - Source

Use a medium sized spoon which is neither
too big nor too small for your child.
The spoon should not be too deep. It
should be unbreakable.
If your child cannot hold the spoon with
a firm grip, pad the handle of the spoon
to make it thicker.
You can do this by inserting the spoon into
a cylindrical piece of wood and making
a thick handle.
You can also pad the handle with
sponge or wrap a cloth around it.
