This plastic-free, eating-encouraged spoon & bowl is meticulously handcrafted from beech wood. Each set inherits the unique grain of each tree, which contains a history of the weather, climate, and soil conditions experienced during its growth cycle. Finely crafted and sanded baby smooth, our spoon and bowl set is the ideal size for children beginning to eat on their own.

Both items are crafted from American beech and sealed with beeswax. Spoon and bowl are designed and crafted in the United States.

The natural softness of wood is perfect for tender gums, and the bowls make great shatterproof snack containers!

How to care for your wooden bowl and spoon:

What is actually more important than what you do, in this case, is what you don't do. Never put the spoon or bowl or any other wooden kitchenware in the dishwasher. Never soak them in water. If you need to wash them off use a little dish soap with some water and be sure to towel dry them afterwards rather than letting them drip dry.

Wood must be completely dry before it is made into finished products. This is because wood changes dimension as it either dries out or rehydrates. Two things happen to wood when it absorbs water. It changes dimension (it swells up) and it becomes softer. Neither of these is good for kitchenware. In general, wood is happy and lasts the longest the drier it stays. If wood does soak up water it is important to not let it dry too fast. Thus, never dry out wood by putting it in the oven or in direct sunlight. If wood dries too fast it will crack or shrink. If you need to dry out wooden ware that has accidentally soaked up lots of water, towel dry it then leave it near the floor where it is cooler rather than on top of a counter. The luster of wooden kitchen utensils fades as the oil is washed off. Color and luster can be restored by reapplying a food-grade beeswax polish. We do not recommend vegetable oil as this oil is known to go rancid. Other oils such as walnut oil are wonderful for wood, however, if nut allergies are suspected in your family, we caution against using these products. Re-oiling/beeswaxing can be done as often as you like, probably once every month or two is enough. This is a wonderful activity to do with children as the color of the wood changes with application and fragrance of the beeswax is heavenly.
