Our last batch of Wild Tree Tools until further notice is on its way to our LA warehouse. Ships around mid-November. We will email you the moment it ships.

Meet Branchling, the baby brother of the Branch Spoon: 3.9 inches of carved wood holding about a half-teaspoon of very serious potion ingredients.

Carved to resemble a little branch, it stirs the magical potions, measures the fairy spices, and fits the play kitchens the big spoons cannot.

Age Recommendations

3456

From age three up. Younger children scoop, stir, and pour; older children run the whole mud kitchen and invent the recipes.

Why it lasts.

We carry Wild Mountain Child because these are real tools, not toy-shaped props: hand-carved, hand-sanded, and hand-polished from Doussie plantation timber by Vietnamese artisans in a traditional craft village, finished in food-grade oil, and designed in Australia by a mother who watched her own child's sensory play and built the tools it was missing. No two are the same, and that is the point.

Carved by hand

Each piece is carved, sanded, and polished by hand from Doussie, a Vietnamese plantation hardwood, so the grain and shape vary from one to the next. No two match, and that is the point.

Made for wet play

A food-grade oil finish lets it go into water, sand, and mud and come back out. A rub of beeswax or oil now and then keeps the wood smooth for years.

Works with the whole range

The little sibling of the Branch Spoon. Together they make a big-and-small pair for measuring and stirring.

Who it's for

Details

Materials & construction

Hand-carved, hand-sanded, and hand-polished from Doussie, a Vietnamese plantation timber, then finished with food-grade oil. Grain and carving vary piece to piece; that variation is the handwork showing, not a defect. Size: 3.9 in long, about a 1/2 teaspoon.

Age & safety

Safety

Ages 3+. Solid wood with no paint or varnish, finished with food-grade oil. Check for raised fibers after heavy water play and re-oil as needed. Adult supervision recommended.

Care & storage

Water, sand, and mud play are all fine; just don't leave it soaking for days. Towel-dry after wet play and let it air-dry fully. Now and then, rub in a little beeswax or vegetable oil to keep the fibers smooth. Use only mild dish soap if needed, and never the dishwasher.

Wild Mountain Child Wild Mountain Child is Elise, a nature-play advocate and mother in Australia. Wild Tree Tools began in 2018, after a fair trade project introduced her to artisans in Vietnam. She built the range around their work and now runs the production relationship directly, with the same regional artisans making it for nearly eight years. The work supports a small Vietnamese enterprise that promotes traditional handicrafts and offers work-from-home income for young mothers.
