Pre-order open

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.

A spoon carved to look like it grew that way: the Twig Spoon is delightfully delicate, made for stirring pots and scooping whatever the play kitchen is serving today.

Each one tells the story of a craftsperson selecting a piece of timber and shaping it by hand to bring out its particular beauty, so no two twigs match, exactly like outside.

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

Shares a kitchen with the Branch Spoon and the Branchling, a whole family of spoons carved to look like they grew that way.

Who it's for

For the parent
The stirrer that looks foraged: a twig from an enchanted forest that happens to survive the dishpan.
For the educator
A nature-table stirring tool whose organic form invites texture talk and gentle grip practice.
For the gift-giver
The little extra that completes a mud-kitchen gift: a hand-carved twig with a job.

Ways to play.

  • Stir the pot and scoop the potion
  • Serve the forest feast
  • Add the Branch Spoon for a second cook

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.

Skills it builds

Fine motor, Scooping and stirring, Pretend play, Sensory exploration

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.
