Wooden spoon

Wooden Spoon

A wooden spoon is a spoon made of wood typically used in cooking.

A wooden spoon is also a classic implement for domestic spanking and for BDSM scenes that have a domestic flavor, especially one set in the kitchen. It serves as a form of light paddle. Note that a wooden spoon can be actually more painful than a other light paddles because the impact is concentrated on a smaller surface.

Normally the spoon is given on the buttocks, but it can also be used on the hands (see striking the hand).

"Wooden spoons" designed for spanking

There are also implements designed for spanking in the basic shape of a wooden spoon, which are not intended to be used for cooking. An example of such an implement, with a long handle and a small but thick business end, is exhibited in School Museum Hamburg. Such a heavy specimen would not be very suitable for corporal punishment on the hands, and was probably designed to be used on the student's buttocks.
