As much as you might want your kid to start feeding themselves, you’ve got to think about it from their perspective. They’ve got the life. They just get to sit back and relax and [annoyingly] turn their head away while you desperately try and get a bite of food in their mouth. And heaven forbid you try and give them a fork or spoon to use on their own during family dinner. Nope! You know that sh*t is getting thrown straight on the ground.

Which is why I audibly gasped (don’t judge!) when I saw Paperclip’s new color-changing feeding collection. Color. Changing. Yes, the baby gear brand created a bib, suction bowl, suction plate, and a spoon and spork that all change from Light Moon (a purple-ish hue) to Sea Salt (orange-y) when they come in contact with warm food. So your kiddo will get a major surprise when they stick their spork into some pasta!
Color Changing Spork & Spoon Set
$9 $14 36% off
If I was a toddler, I’d be reaching for that thing ASAP and not giving it up. I’d keep dunking it in my food and watching with wonder. Honestly, I’m mad I didn’t have these when I was a tot. Is it weird if an adult were to buy them? Asking for a friend…
Plus, the set is currently on sale for just nine bucks. Your kiddo might not care, but we love the aesthetic of the beechwood handles and that the set is free of BPA, BPS, PVC, and Phthalates. Meanwhile, the entire collection of color-changing products is 30 percent off, and the other pieces are all dishwasher-safe. (Gotta be careful with the beechwood!)
Color Changing Foodie Kit<br>
No matter which item your kid is using or what they’re eating, these products make mealtime a magical little science experiment. With older kids, see if they can count how long it takes for the color to change. Does the spoon’s color change from the warmth of their mouth alone? Or can they warm up the bib with their hands? Does it change faster when it goes from purple to orange than it does from orange back to purple?
Again, what kid wouldn’t be entranced and want to start self-feeding if they had cool utensils like these? They won’t even realize they’ve taken on more responsibility and are honing their motor skills.
“The real benefit, though, is the positive association that is developed with interactive feeding products,” Paperclip says. “… Positive associations at mealtime can help build affinity for trying new things, healthy foods, exploration, and more.”
Plus! If you aren’t already sold, every item from the feeling line comes packaged in a reusable Snack Stash Bag for on-the-go use.
These baby and toddler food delivery services make mealtime so much easier.
