Lusikkahaarukka

Lusikkahaarukka is a special kind of silverware that you might see at a fancy dinner. It’s called that because it’s part spoon (lusikka in Finnish) and part fork (haarukka in Finnish).

Think of it like a superhero that has two powers combined! Just like how Superman can fly and has super strength, lusikkahaarukka can help you both scoop foods like soup or cereal AND stab foods like meat or vegetables.

The lusikkahaarukka has a spoon-like bowl at one end and four “teeth” that make up the fork-like prongs at the other end. This makes it really handy for eating different kinds of foods that might need either a spoon or a fork to eat.

And because it’s made of silver, it’s shiny and special, making it perfect for fancy dinners where you want to use the best possible utensils.
