Why the Very Hungry Caterpillar changes everything at the table
Every children's party starts somewhere. For many children, it's the meal - the moment when you sit together, share, and enjoy. With this cheerful cutlery set from Van Kempen & Begeer, you give your child their own place at the table, complete with their favourite green caterpillar.

A nod to the classic story, every day anew at the table.

Quality you can see and feel
Van Kempen & Begeer started in 1789 as a small gold- and silversmith's workshop in the Netherlands - that's no coincidence. This kids' cutlery is made from 18/10 stainless steel, the very best quality stainless steel you can choose for cutlery. The "18" stands for the chromium content that keeps the cutlery rust-resistant, while the "10" stands for the nickel content that provides that beautiful, durable shine. In other words: this cutlery doesn't get boring, doesn't discolour, and lasts year after year. The high-gloss finish also gives the set that neat, stylish appearance that you can expect from a premium brand.
Little children tend to put cutlery through its paces - biting on it, tapping it, and throwing it on the floor. With this stainless steel set from Van Kempen & Begeer, you can let them play freely. The material doesn't bend, break, or lose its shine even after dozens of dishwasher cycles. Smart buying is buying something that lasts for years - and this is exactly such a purchase.
Smart to use, nice for you
The set consists of four pieces that together form a complete table set for your child: a fork for bites, a knife for the budding big eater, a spoon for soup and porridge, and a small spoon for yoghurt or dessert. Everything is in a size that fits little hands - not too heavy, not too big, but sturdy enough to hold well. This way, your child learns early what it is to sit comfortably and independently at the table.
And the best part? This kids' cutlery is dishwasher safe. After eating, you simply slide the set into the dishwasher and you're done. Want to keep the high gloss looking nice for longer? Occasionally wash it by hand and dry it immediately after washing. This way, the cutlery retains its beautiful shine for years to come.
The cutlery is part of the Junior collection from Van Kempen & Begeer, specially designed for the youngest table companions. A collection that is not only lovely to look at but also truly built for everyday use.
The perfect gift - even if you don't know what to give
Do you know that feeling when visiting a newborn or christening? You want to give something that truly lasts, not just another cuddly toy or set of baby grows. This kids' cutlery from Van Kempen & Begeer is such a gift. It's practical, timeless, and has that nod to a story that every child knows. Packaged as a gift - and you're done. The parents will use it for years and always remember it as a gift with class and sentiment.
Moreover, it's a lot more personal than a gift voucher. You're giving something tangible, something that comes to the table every day. Every bite a memory of you - that's how a good gift works.
