Did you prefer a certain brand spoon for when you first introduced solids?
-
the metal gerber/nuk ones with the covered spoon part are great to start with because they are almost flat and small enough for a little baby's mouth.

I liked the ones that turned white if they were too hot...sometimes I don't realize the temperature of things.

At first I liked the plastic munchkin spoons until she was onto self feeding, around 12 months, & then switched to using these by xox http://www.buybuybaby.com/product.asp?sku=126358

@Mrsbells: I'm not there yet, but I plan to buy a Boon Spoon called Squirt. They seem especially excellent for on-the-go.

@Mrsbells: I like the plastic Munchkin spoons.

We use the Green Toys BPA-Free Feeding Spoon. They come in an 8-pack, which is awesome because we go through a lot during each meal these days. I usually arm myself with at least 3 at a time!
-
@baby98765: I like these!
-
@sulli301: We also use the regular Munchkin ones! Now DD uses the Munchkin toddler spoon/fork set, since she feeds herself.
-
Thanks everyone
@cvbee: wow thats interesting... -
@Mrsbells: yeah, most of the moms with the older babies in my mom group have them and love them.

I have some Tommee Tippee plastic spoons that are okay. I prefer the Playtex ones we have. They are thinner width-wise and I feel like they fit in her mouth better.
These ones

@Honeybee: I haven't tried the munchkin toddler ones! Are they plastic?
-
We like the OXO ones. Soft and durable, and they make it easy to get ALL the food, which was important for us since we had a giant pig on our hands.
-
@sulli301: The tips are metal, but the handle is plastic. They're nice and thick (so easy to hold on to), and the fork is more like a spork (so it's not sharp). I think we're going to be transitioning to regular silverware soon (DD already uses a regular cup instead of a sippy), but these have been great for the independent, but uncoordinated, toddler stage!
-
@Honeybee: very cool! Thanks! I am going to look next time I am @ BRU
They look very similar to the XOX ones we are using. How old was your LO when she began using a regular cup? That's awesome!
-
@sulli301: We just started last month, so 25 months! I just got tired of her sippy cups leaking, and it was either switch over to regular cups or buy new sippies, so we made the switch.

@CVBee: I have also heard great things about Infafeeders, too. Same concept, only in a bottle-type format.
