TalkTools® Magenta Fork™ (Bumpy) - 12-Pack
The Bumpy Magenta Fork provides a moderate level of tactile input for clients progressing beyond a smooth feeding utensil. Small raised bumps along the fork surface provide noticeable sensory feedback during each bite and can be incorporated into structured feeding activities focused on oral awareness, lip engagement, and gradual exposure to different food textures. Its Comfort Grip handle can also support hand-over-hand guidance during clinician- or caregiver-directed feeding practice. The fork pairs with the TalkTools® Magenta Spoon for a coordinated feeding utensil set. Additional options are available in the TalkTools feeding tools collection .
