Abstract: An infant teething and feeding apparatus having a child-proof locking mechanism, reducing the likelihood of the assembled apparatus becoming inadvertently or prematurely disassembled by a young child and, in turn, preventing an associated food containing member from becoming separated from the overall device, absent intervention by an adult, and thus becoming a choking hazard to the child. A handle assembly of the apparatus includes a cooling insert for chilling, or maintaining the chilled condition, of food contained within the food containing member. A cap, or cover is provided to assist in maintaining the freshness of food contained within the apparatus, as well as to prevent the food contained within the apparatus from soiling clothing or other objects while the apparatus is being transported.
