Another good teaching aid is a walnut. I think it's Coach Smith who
suggests passing out walnuts at the beginning of the class and having the
dads "hold onto their nuts" until she talks about stomach size later. They
conveniently fit inside a Snappie or 2-ounce Volu Feed. Why would we want
to try to get a one-day old infant to take a 2-ounce bottle of formula when
their stomach only holds what will fit inside the walnut?
