How it works

First, let's offer the soft silicone spoon. Hold it about six inches from your child's face, wiggle it gently, and say something like, 'Look at this spoon!' Watch how they responds.

Now, let's offer the spoon for mouthing. Gently place the handle near your child's hand or against their lips. Say, 'Would you like to taste it?' Observe how they interacts.

Let's introduce the textured washcloth. Dampen it with cool water if you like. Gently stroke your child's cheek or hand with it, saying, 'This feels bumpy!' Then offer a corner for mouthing.

Finally, let's offer the teething ring. Hold it out and see if your child reaches or mouths it. You can say, 'This one's for chewing!'
