Handmade Wooden Teaspoon for Babies & Toddlers | Yompai NZ

The Gentle, Non-Toxic Teething Spoon Loved by Kiwi Mums
Safe for first foods. Gentle on little gums. Crafted for conscious parenting.

Why This Spoon is Different

Your baby’s first bites deserve better than plastic. Our handcrafted wooden teaspoon is carefully designed for safety, comfort, and calm mealtimes — perfect for babies starting solids, toddlers learning to feed themselves, and teething little ones needing soothing.

 What makes it ideal for your little one:

• Natural & Non-Toxic: Made from sustainably sourced teak wood, with no chemicals, varnish, BPA, or plastics — just food-safe oil.

• Gentle on Gums: Smooth, rounded edges make it ideal as a first teething spoon or for sensitive mouths.

• Easy to Grip: Lightweight and sized for tiny hands — encourages independent eating.

• Eco-Friendly: 100% biodegradable, sustainably made, and reusable for years.

• Handmade in Small Batches: Crafted by artisans, with care and intention in every piece.

Who is this for?

• Mums starting baby-led weaning

• Parents looking for non-toxic baby utensils

• Eco-conscious families avoiding plastic

• Gifting buyers (baby showers, first birthdays)

• Toddlers who want to do it “all by myself!”

✨ A Safe Start to Lifelong Eating Habits

Our wooden teaspoon is more than a tool — it’s part of an  intentional feeding experience that aligns with your parenting values. You want safety, simplicity, and sustainability — and this spoon supports all three.

Real Questions We Hear:

🍼 “Is it safe for teething?”
Yes — the wood is naturally smooth and doesn’t splinter. It's firm enough for soothing sore gums, and the shape ensures safety during use.

🍌 “Can babies hold this themselves?”
Absolutely. The angled handle and lightweight shape are perfect for small hands learning to feed.

🧼 “How do I clean it?”
Just wash with warm water and mild soap. Dry thoroughly. We recommend reapplying food-safe oil monthly to maintain its finish.
