All doddl utensil sets are cleverly engineered to intuitively teach your child to eat independently. The difference is in the product size and materials. The doddl baby spoon and fork is designed for a baby between the age of 6-12 months, so it is smaller in size, with handle and utensil ends that are made from high quality plastic with soft touch areas. doddl toddler utensils are designed for children aged 1- 5+ years and have high quality plastic handles and soft touch areas, but with effective, stainless-steel ends. If this is the first set of utensils for your baby, they are under 12 months and are not eating full meals yet, then doddl baby would be the best first set for your baby. If, however, your child is between 11 months and 14 months, has some level of co-ordination and is eating more substantial meals, doddl toddler utensils will be the best choice for your child.
