Feeding spoons are specially designed utensils used to help individuals, especially infants and young children, eat solid foods. They typically have a shallow bowl and a long handle, making it easier for caregivers to feed the child or for the child to self-feed. Feeding spoons are often made from safe, non-toxic materials like plastic or silicone, which are gentle on the child’s gums. These spoons come in various sizes and shapes to accommodate different stages of eating. Some feeding spoons are designed with soft tips to prevent injury, while others may have ergonomic handles for better grip. Many feeding spoons are also dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning.
