I hope you guys can help me.....Has anyone ever heard of a dipper? It is a feeding device or utensil. I have been told about it, recently. It is not a spoon. It has a handle like a spoon and on the other end is like a spatula used for dipping. The baby dips the spatula end into the baby food and eats it off the spatula end. It is supposed to help with learning to self feed. I have looked everywhere, even on-line and can't find it... If you have any ideas about this please let me know! Thanks.

What can I do next?

Like the other posts, neither of my 2 boys would use them. Waste of money. We were successful with First Years take & toss spoons. I didn't toss but washed & kept them. Good luck:)

Yes, I bought some online just a couple months ago. They are called Little Dippers and they are by Gerber. I could NOT find them locally in any store - Walmart, BRU, CVS, grocery stores - nothing. So I ordered online. Do a search and you should find them.

you should be able to find it at any local grocery store, Target, or Wal Mart - neither of my boys were interested in it though, they preferred a real utensil.

Hi J.:

They are made by Gerber. I believe that I got mine at Babies R Us.

Good luck!

I have them. I bought them at Walmart about 3 or 4 years ago. I am 99% sure they were gerber brand lil dippers. My kids have all hated them at the age where youd use them. Just give them a spoon!!

i had something like that with my kids a few years ago it was a waist of money, a kids spoon was just as good if not better. don't even bother...

I have some from when my boys were littler. I think they were from Babies R Us, but like the other poster they didn't really do anything for us. We did have good luck with the spoons with thicker handles.
