Description

These whale training chopsticks pair two slim beech wood sticks with a friendly silicone whale that sits across the top and joins them together. The whale is a soft sky blue with a white belly, a little white spout of water on its head, a curled tail and a cheerful smiling face, so mealtimes gain a small companion as well as a useful tool. Because the topper holds the sticks at the top, they open and close together and the tips stay lined up, which takes much of the fiddle out of picking food up for the first time. Assembled, they are 22cm long, and the whale topper is 5.8cm by 5cm and 2.7cm deep.

We like these on the kitchen table for young learners getting to grips with chopsticks at home, whether that means noodles on a weeknight, a family takeaway or a bowl of rice at lunch. As confidence grows, the sticks slide free of the whale to be used on their own, and then they measure 18cm long, a little shorter than everyday chopsticks and easier to manage. That makes them a pair that grows with the learner, from the first wobbly grab at a piece of broccoli to the proper technique. They suit a lunch bag or picnic box as well as the cutlery drawer.

The sticks are beech, a pale wood with a fine visible grain, and the whale is soft, flexible silicone that grips the tops of the sticks. They are hand wash only: slide the sticks out of the topper, wash each part in warm soapy water, then let them dry fully before putting them back together. Avoid leaving the wood to soak, which keeps it smooth and at its best for longer. For a cheerful little gift, tuck them beside a favourite bowl and a packet of noodles, and the whale does the rest.

Can the chopsticks be used without the whale?

Yes, the sticks slide out of the whale topper, so they can be used as an ordinary pair of chopsticks once the learner is ready.

How should I clean them?

They are hand wash only. Separate the sticks from the topper, wash each part in warm soapy water and let everything dry fully before reassembling.
