Childs Whistling Spoon

After The Meal Comes The Tune - Like It Or Not

"This is a replica of a Whistling Spoon that dates far back in Scottish history centuries ago.


The spoon was carved in wood or ox horn with a little whistle built into the handle and used by a baby or toddler to eat his or her porridge in a bowl. When finished the child blew the whistle to call his mother from another room or from the barn where she might be milking the cows.


Original examples of the spoon can be seen in Ceres Museum in Fife, Scotland and in York Museum.
