As baby is wanting to feed himself more, I'm loving these Beaba spoons I got at Giggle. They're the perfect length and width. The handle is wide for baby to hold. The spoon is big enough for baby to get a decent amount of food on it. The handle is short enough that baby can easily aim the spoon to his mouth before all the food falls off. Plus, the colors are ADORABLE!!!!
You may have heard of the Beaba brand because of its popular steamer/food processor in one for homemade baby food. I never got much into that, but Beaba certainly is impressing me with its baby feeding accessories.
The spoons come in a spoon and fork set, but we have really only used the spoons so far. The short spoons are much better than the longer Beaba spoons that come in a set of four spoons- the long spoons are fine for parent-feeding, but for self-feeding they are just too long and thin for baby to use effectively. Giggle rocks it as usual!
I also recently bought some Beaba cups. I wanted plastic cups for baby to learn how to drink from a cup, since he always chomps on my glass cups that I share with him. I didn't want cheap "Cars" plastic cups. I didn't want lidded cups. I didn't want cups with a thick lip. I just wanted a damn plastic cup made of material the baby couldn't chew through... enter these frigging adorable cups from Beaba that I found at in the awesome baby section at Bed Bath. (I can't find it on the Bed Bath online site, but Babies R Us carries it.)The cup is lightweight enough so baby can hold. It's SMALL enough that he can easily get his mouth around it the edge. It's small and shallow enough that it only holds a small amount of water, so when baby dumps it all over himself, as he inevitably does, he's not completely drenched. Before he drenches himself, he's able to drink from a cup on his own.
Love it!
