Bumkins – Toddler and Baby Suction Plate, Silicone Divided Grip Dish, Purple Jelly

Bumkins Silicone Grip Dish is perfect for little ones learning to self-feed. This sectioned plate is sized for baby and toddler portions. A strong suction base ensures the dish sticks! To help suction and prevent skid, try dampening the bottom of the suction with just a little bit of water so it stays put! Great for use on highchair trays or tables. A straight side allows kids to sit up to the plate, allowing less of a mess. Silicone can safely transition from the refrigerator or freezer to the oven or microwave to warm.

What is Baby-Led-Weaning? It’s the process of adding complementary foods to your baby’s diet of breastmilk or formula by allowing them to do the leading, with your guidance. Experts say babies who start solids at an early age may develop a more sophisticated palate and be more likely to eat a wider variety of healthy foods when they’re older.

When to start BLW? Is baby almost six-months-old? Starting to sit up and grab and hold onto objects? If so, it might be time to discuss BLW with your pediatrician. BLW-friendly foods are soft and gentle on baby’s gums and easier to swallow. All foods should be mashed or cut into small, easy-to-swallow pieces for safe eating. As your baby works toward learning to eat through self-feeding, it’s likely they will freely experiment with foods you offer and the dishware you serve on.
