Gerber Infant spoons are, as it says in my sound bite, simply the best first spoon for the first solid foods a baby will eat. These spoons have a log handle which makes it easy for mom, dad, grandma, big brother, etc. to use. It also has a soft, small spoon end which is gentle on gums and developing teeth. One of my favorite features about these spoons is that they change colors when the food is too hot so I know that my baby is safe.
Do not be fooled by generic brands that eventually crack or do not tell you when a food is too hot for baby. Gerber is the brand that lasted through those first nibbles when the food was almost purely liquid to the biting due to those first teeth coming in to the point where my baby is now grabbing the spoon out of my hand and placing it in the dish she is eating from. Gerber also makes it easy to transition from infant to toddler with appropriately sized toddler spoons that still have a soft spoon end which continues to be gentle and tough throughout teething.
Gerber spoons are highly recommended!!!
