Explore which spoons and other baby feeding pieces you need to bring home today.

Which Baby Spoons Should You Choose?

Choosing baby spoons depends on your personal style and how your baby likes to eat. Most babies who aren't being breastfed get fed from a high chair, so make your selections around the sets you choose to fit your high chair trays.

• Your baby's age determines the size of the spoon. For instance, many spoons are made for babies to start using them around six months of age.
• The look of the spoons can matter to many parents. Some spoons are sold in sets and may contain lots of bright colors. Others are made of sustainable materials, like bamboo and look chic and upscale.
• Make sure your spoons are easy to wash. Since feeding time happens every few hours, you'll need to have a number of spoons on hand or expect to be doing dishes instead of enjoying a few extra minutes with your baby.

Baby Bowls, Plates and Placemats

Get streamlined when you shop for baby spoons at the same time as your other baby dinnerware or food containers. Look for sets that include baby bowls, plates, placemats and more. Many times, bowls are just deep enough to hold the right serving size of food for infants, while plates may be divided to make it easy for babies to start helping with feeding.

Some baby bowls have suction bottoms so your baby can't chuck it off the side of the high chair if you look away. These are great for busy parents who want to make feeding as clean as can be while giving your baby a chance to develop some spoon-holding skills.

Accessories for Feeding Your Baby

Indulge in other accessories for feeding your baby, too, like countertop baby food makers, baby bottle dryers that let you dry several at once, or silicone bibs that are easy to wipe clean and even have a little food catcher to keep outfits clean a little longer.
