Foodie Judy's "Three Spoon Circus" Bapron Set - Bubblegum Pink Floral

Ever noticed that when you allow young babies to self-feed, they hold the spoon hostage? How do you get it back without a battle? Foodie Judy, of Feeding Littles, coined this amazing little phrase to go along with her brilliant solution: “The Three Spoon circus”, and we can’t get enough of it!!!

Step 1: dip spoon into guacamole, hummus, applesauce, or puree

Step 2: repeat with spoon 2

Step 3: Instead of taking spoon from baby’s hands, introduce a third loaded spoon!

(Baby will drop the empty spoon to reach for the new, more interesting full spoon!)

In an effort to make shopping for parents and caretakers of young Baby-Led Weaners just a little easier and more affordable, we’ve now created this fun “Three Spoon Circus” bundle, which comes with THREE Gootensils plus a choice of bapron to create the perfect tools for a little mealtime circus of your own. Mealtime was made to be fun!

When to use
To safely use a utensil, a child must be able to sit unassisted and hold their head up. After which, experts recommend introducing a utensil when the child expresses an interest. This can happen as early as 6 months, but most kids are truly ready to tackle utensils somewhere between 10 and 14 months.

Ideal foods
GOOtensils can be used with a range of foods, including baby food, home blends, oatmeal, yogurt, mashed solids and more. We share recipes on our social media often!

How to use
Introduce stage one pre-spoon (with raised textures) first so child can soothe their sore gums as they are getting acclimated to holding the utensil. Once the child has learned the basic food-to-mouth motion, the stage two pre-spoon, which holds more food, can be used interchangeably for thicker foods.

When to transition to a spoon
Most children get wrist rotation around their second birthday. Wrist rotation unlocks scooping and balancing, allowing the child to properly use a spoon. Some signs that wrist rotation has set in include scooping around the corners of the bowl and successfully maneuvering the spoon to the mouth with more food. If these signs are present, congratulations, your child is ready to graduate to the spoon!
