Soft silicone protects baby's developing teeth and makes gumming self-feeding safe. Slight arc of spoon can be used for dipping and scooping and the narrow spoon bowl safely fits baby’s mouth. Sensory bumps on the spoon bowl activate sensory awareness to decrease gagging and choking. Non-slip grip and short, fat, round handle help baby grasp utensil and bumps on the bottom of the spoon stabilize the spoon when at rest. Works for both purees and the baby-led weaning feeding methods.
