- NumNum
Product: NumNum Pre-Spoon GOOtensils – $9.99/2-pack, NumNum Beginner Bowl – $13.99
- GOOtensils
- Flat design means no scooping, no balancing and no wrong way to hold it! (Note: Full wrist rotation is required to scoop and balance and most kids don’t develop this major motor skill until one and a half years or later!)
- Two stages of pre-spoons: The blue stage-one GOOtensil acclimates the child to holding a utensil and grabs just enough of purees and organic blends to give a taste of self-feeding independence; the textures on this starter GOOtensil also feel great on sore gums! Once the child has learned the food-to-mouth motion, he/she can graduate to the orange stage-two GOOtensil, which captures and holds thicker blends and can even be pre-loaded with solids
- Little learners get the psychological benefit of participating in mealtime and discovering they can feed themselves while preparing to transition to the spoon
