A Lot on My Plate

Feeding toddlers can be frustrating. I am fortunate that Spencer hasn’t been a fussy eater.

I wanted to make sure he was eating not only healthy foods but also a variety of foods, especially at lunch time, as I found myself not planning those meals very well.

While shopping I came across a children’s bamboo dinnerware set which included a plate, cup, bowl, fork and spoon. I was first drawn to the aesthetic of it. I’m not really into childish looking items – with the latest T.V. characters or really bright colors. I loved that this one was more neutral in color but also could do what I wanted it to – remind me to add variety to Spencer’s meals.

The set is made by Love Mae, a company out of Australia that is all about taking care of the earth. All of their products are biodegradable!, non-toxic and dishwasher safe (however, not microwave or oven-safe)!

When the set is not in the dishwasher, it’s being used for Spencer’s meals. I especially like the plate as it has different sections that you can fill with a main dish, veggies, protein, fruit, etc. As a mom, it reminds me to add variety to his plate….and it only helps that he loves seeing (and tasting) the different types of food with each meal.
