I have fed my girls by setting the bowl down on the table. But the problem with typical plastic baby bowls is that they slide whenever I get a spoonful. Several times I have to push the bowl back into the middle of the table before it falls to the floor. And on occasion that I feed the babies something thick, I couldn’t even get a spoonful out without using both hands. With the Baby Dipper Bowl, I was able to just keep it on the table without worrying it would eventually fall off the table. This leaves my other hand free to do a whole lot of other things like preventing baby from swatting at the incoming spoonful of food.
The Baby Dipper bowl quickly became my favorite. I packed the bowls, and the spoons it came with whenever we visited the in-laws 3 hours away. The spoon was great too. It rested on the bowl nicely, unlike other baby spoons that are usually heavier than most bowls – which then tips over whenever the spoon is put back in the bowl. When my twins entered toddlerhood, the Baby Dipper bowls were excellent. It allowed them to practice their grip of the spoon without having to chase after a constantly moving bowl. It was less mess for me to clean up – always a good thing!
Today, I’m still using my Baby Dipper bowl with my 7 month old. He is still new to solid foods and grabs and swats at the spoon coming to him. With one hand free, I’m able to hold his hand at bay so that the food can make a clear landing to his mouth.
The bowl is BPA-free, lead-free and phthalate free – though perhaps the most impressive of all is that it was invented by a mom of 2 sets of twins.
