Tonging activities can be introduced to children from the time they are capable of self-feeding. By this time, they may have squeezed the tong. At 4 and up, they will be able to hold the tongs with three fingers.
"If we study the psychology of children aged between three and six, we see that movement, and especially the movement of the hand, plays a most important part in mental development of children in this age group." Maria Montessori, The 1946 London Lectures
