Baby tableware

Baby plates, bowls and feeding sets with stainless steel or silicone eating surfaces.

Babies often mouth more than the part intended to hold food.  We exclude plastic and melamine from eating and mouth-contact surfaces, including included utensils and accessible attachments.  Suction bases and lids are assessed separately from the bowl, with age and cleaning instructions kept specific to the product.

Kiddobloom Stainless Steel Baby & Toddler Dinnerware Set — Fire Truck Kiddobloom Stainless Steel Baby & Toddler Dinnerware Set — Fire Truck STAINLESS STEEL Why we recommend it: Uncoated 304 stainless steel offers a durable alternative to plastic dishes for early self-feeding.  The handled bowl and small open cup give little hands something to grip, while the divided plate keeps foods separate.  Wash before first use, clean beneath the rims, and let the pieces air-dry rather than using a dishwasher’s heated drying cycle.  These dishes have no suction base. Materials: 304 (18/8) stainless steel $78.98★ 4.7 · 300+ ratings View on Amazon
BraveJusticeKidsCo. SiliSteel Silicone Bowl — Citadel BraveJusticeKidsCo.  SiliSteel Silicone Bowl — Citadel SILICONESTEEL Why we recommend it: The steel-reinforced rim helps this silicone bowl hold its shape while you scoop or carry a meal.  Its eating surface is silicone, with the metal enclosed inside the rim.  A useful alternative to rigid plastic tableware once larger portions are needed, though it is roomy for a young child and does not suction to a highchair tray.  Dishwasher safe; supervise meals and check food temperature. Materials: silicone food-contact surface · enclosed steel rim $7.19★ 4.6 · 93 ratings View on Amazon
JUstenbois Solid Maple Baby Bowl JUstenbois Solid Maple Baby Bowl SOLID WOOD Why we recommend it: This small bowl is carved from solid maple without glued layers, giving you a wooden serving surface instead of a plastic baby bowl.  Its 12.5 cm diameter is sized to hold while feeding.  Made in Quebec with a disclosed oil-and-plant-wax finish.  Empty it after meals, hand-wash and dry it promptly; the spoon is sold separately. Materials: solid maple · flaxseed-oil and plant-wax finish · rosemary and lemon oils $35.00 View product
Moyuum Silicone Suction Bowl with Serving-Lid Cover Moyuum Silicone Suction Bowl with Serving-Lid Cover SILICONE Why we recommend it: A broad suction base helps steady this silicone bowl while a child practices scooping.  Its included silicone cover doubles as a small snack plate, so both serving surfaces avoid rigid plastic.  The bowl and cover are made in South Korea from platinum-cured silicone and are dishwasher-compatible.  Suction works best on a clean, smooth tabletop. Materials: platinum-cured silicone bowl · silicone serving lid $23.00 View product
