Safety Tested and Made with Safe Materials
Silicone, Not Plastic
A softer, safer alternative
Let’s be clear: silicone is not plastic. Our food-safe silicone is lab-tested and free of BPA, BPS, PVC, phthalates, lead, and cadmium. It’s durable but still gentle on baby’s tender gums. Silicone is also soft with no sharp edges to poke or scratch babies as they develop their coordination.
Stain, Odor, & Bacteria Resistant
No fuss
As parents, we have enough to worry about; your child’s dishware shouldn’t be one of those things. Silicone’s properties are naturally resistant to bacteria, mold, and fungus. It is also resistant to stains and is dishwasher safe. Cleanup will be a breeze!
Platinum Curing Agents
Only the best
During creation, silicone can be cured with two types of agents. Lucky for you, we only use the best one—platinum. During the platinum curing process, no byproducts are created, and the silicone’s already fabulous qualities are amplified. Happy baby? Check. Happy parent? Check.
Silicone Dipping Spoons
Introduce baby to the world of self-feeding and utensils with this set of starter spoons. Made from 100% food-safe silicone that is gentle on gums, Silicone Dipping Spoons are double-ended to grow with baby—one side for dipping into purees, the other for scooping. Silicone Dipping Spoons are the ideal size for baby to begin the motions of self-feeding while under the supervision of an adult. With three spoons in a set, there are enough for both parent and baby to have a spoon in hand, avoiding any power struggles with independent eaters. With coordinating colors, these spoons pair perfectly with any Bumkins Silicone First Feeding Set or Silicone Grip Dish.

Silicone Dipping Spoon Features
A Spoon for Everybody
Keep mealtime moving
Our handy multi-packs mean that mealtime continues on, even if baby has snagged the spoon from you for their own feeding adventures. Allow baby to continue exploring self-feeding motions while you keep mealtime moving with the set of three spoons.
One End for Dipping
Great for hand-eye coordination
As baby is just getting familiar with the feeding process, the dipping end of the spoon is great for learning the motions of self-feeding. The dipping end of the spoon is flat, with grooves on both sides to easily grasp those purees and mashed first foods. Thanks to those grooves, both sides of the dipping end allow for a successful dip; there's no wrong way to dip! This helps baby to feel accomplished while first learning and encourages them to keep trying!
One End for Scooping
Graduating to the big bites
Once baby has mastered the motion of dipping and landing in the bowl, the opposite end of the spoon becomes more interesting. Sized for baby's small mouth, this end of the spoon allows for perfect-sized first bites. Now, baby can work on the full scoop-motion and get a spoonful.
Silicone Chewtensils
Bumkins Chewtensils are designed to introduce young babies to the concept of utensils and self-feeding. Made from 100% soft and durable food-safe silicone, they feature a rounded handle that is easy for babies to hold. The small size is easier for babies to manage as they develop the coordination to feed themselves. A ventilated shield helps prevent gagging or choking.

Silicone Chewtensils Features
Perfectly Sized for Little Hands
Intended for a baby, not a kid
How well could you eat a meal with a spoon if it was several times longer than the width of your hand? Standard baby spoons, while smaller than adult utensils, are still very long compared to a baby’s hand and arm. Chewtensils are sized to fit into a baby’s small hand. This smaller size is more comfortable for babies to grab and gives them more control, helping them develop fine-motor skills.
Round Handle for Learning
Learn which end is which
Babies are constantly learning about their surroundings. As they learn about self-feeding, how would they know which end of a utensil to hold? Chewtensils have rounded, textured handles that are easy to grasp and hold on tight. The added weight of the solid silicone handles also helps to steady babies’ hands as they learn to dip and scoop purees and soft foods.
Textured to Soothe
Because teething is a pain
Babies spend a good deal of time teething and seeking out things they can chew on. We know your little one will probably gnaw on our Chewtensils, so we made them from soft, food-safe silicone and added a bit of texture to help give them a bit of relief as they deal with the discomfort of teething*. Let them dip the Chewtensils into a cool puree and enjoy the relief!
*Chewtensils are not a teether and should only be used under direct adult supervision.
Spoon + Fork Set
Bumkins Spoon + Fork Set is designed for the child who has mastered Chewtensils and is ready for the next step. Made with stainless steel coated with soft and grippy silicone, these utensils will be your child’s new favorite. Sturdy and durable, the fork features curved tines that help children pierce and hold food.

Spoon + Fork Features
Silicone & Stainless Steel
These two make a great pair
Silicone is pretty phenomenal, and when you pair it with stainless steel, you have a great set of utensils for your little one. Our silicone is food-safe and provides a soft, comfortable grip around the sturdy 18/8 stainless steel. Together, these utensils are ready for any meal you can throw at them.
Curved Fork Tines
Yes, we did that on purpose
No, your fork is not defective—we’ve purposely curved the tines on our fork. We know that kids are still mastering self-feeding and can get frustrated when it gets tough. Curved tines help create a deep head to scoop and keep food on the fork. The outer curve also helps pierce the food, which can be trickier than it looks when you’re first learning.
Designed To Match
Mealtime made fun
Here at Bumkins, we love some color coordination. You’ll find that our utensils have the perfect mealtime companion, whether it’s a dish, bib, splat mat, or snack bag. Go ahead and find your favorite colors and stock up!
