Baby Approved Utensils
Easy to use platewear, silverware, etc for babies to easily use for self feeding
These spoons are perfect for beginners. Caregivers can use the spoons to test the “squish” of the food (if it squishes easily, it is safe for toothless babies- it does not need to be a purée!). Preload the spoon, then give it to baby to self feeding.
GOOtensils
These cups let baby learn to sip, without the bottle. Perfect for water (don’t add juice or milk). Although they aren’t 100% leak proof, they are definitely spill proof and will cause much less mess than a regular cup.
Miracle® 360° Spoutless Sippy & Trainer Cups
These are our favorite bibs. A good bib lets you give Baby more control over self feeding, because you don’t have to worry about mess.
Mess-proof Bibs
