Abstract
A toy feeding spoon is provided for use with a baby doll having a head with a permanent magnet mounted therein adjacent the mouth portion thereof. The spoon includes a hollow bowl portion with a circular disc rotatably mounted therein and a top wall covering over and concealing a portion of said disc. A bar magnet is mounted on the under side of said disc and cooperates with the magnet in said doll head to turn said disc to a first selected position in which said spoon appears to be empty, when the spoon is brought to the doll mouth. The bar magnet on said disc also cooperates with a permanent magnet mounted within a simulated food container to turn said disc to a second selected position in which said spoon appears to be filled with food, when said spoon is lowered into the interior of said container.
