In my quest for anything non-plastic I learned about CaliBowls from The Soft Landing.I ordered some to try out in green and blue. I was bent on replacing the plastic Munchkin bowls we'd been using which had become a hassle. Since you can't put hot food in plastic I've been using my regular glass bowls. This is fine generally but my son is 4 and when he eats things like cereal or rice, it gets all over the table.
Then I got my CaliBowls and the clouds parted. The sun shone through the trees and the heavens glowed. Ok not really but my mess occurrences decreased dramatically. Originally I thought they were just good looking ceramic bowls. But actually they are much more genius than that. They have an angled lip around the top of the bowl so food falls back in that would otherwise fall over the edge onto the table or your kid. They are also great for serving dips and salsas!
These are a great alternative to plastic dishwasher and microwave safe and since they are ceramic there is no concern over BPP, PVC or Phthalates. I'd recommend them for slightly older children who are past flipping things upside down or on the floor (Let's just say my 1 year old doesn't get the privledge) or for adults. My husband uses them all the time for salsa or ice cream. Thumbs up!
Get Them: You can pick up these great bowls at The Soft Landing and they come in an olive green, light blue or dark red and come 2 in a set. A worthy investment! CaliBowl also makes a BPA, PVC and Phthalate free plastic suction bowl for the little ones.
