Product Description

Inspired by Disney's most iconic character, Mickey Mouse. Bumkins Chewtensils are intended for Stage 1 of baby led weaning – introducing babies to the concept of holding a utensil and feeding themselves. We made Chewtensils from soft, textured silicone that’s easy to grip and is gentle on tender gums, with bendable heads for safety. The utensils are safe to be be chewed on before transitioning to silverware. The back of the spoon head has sensory bumps to stimulate gums. Weighted, textured handles allow little ones to hold. Perfect for dipping into pureed foods at the early part of baby led weaning.Chewtensils are intended for babies before they have a firm grasp on self-feeding; best for dipping and scooping, not yet piercing solid foods. Made from 100-percent food-safe silicone. Dishwasher-safe. For ages 6 months and up. Each measure approximately 3in long, 1.75in wide. Do not leave child unattended with product. Discard if damaged or torn.Starting with purees and traditional weaning means: Confidence in regulating how much your baby is eating and their nutritional intake; Less mess – purees get less distance when thrown.Skipping purees and jumping into self-feeding means: Independence – your little one has control over what they eat, promoting confidence and earlier expansion of their palate, often associated with less fussy eaters; Baby can often eat some of what you’re having, so you don’t have to make separate meals; They decide when they’re full – according to the American Academy of Pediatrics, babies have an innate ability to self-regulate their eating.We use third party labs to ensure the products we manufacture comply with CPSC and CPSIA standards for BPA, Lead, and Phthalates.
