A divided plate is useful from the start of weaning, at around 6 months, and also for the BLW (baby-led weaning) approach. Always use it with adult supervision during meals.

Minikoioi plates are generally made from soft, BPA-free food-grade silicone, a flexible, sturdy material that's safe for the baby. Check the exact composition on the product page.

Many children's plates have a non-slip base or a suction cup, which helps secure them to the table or tray and stops them tipping over during meals. Check this feature on the page of the model you want.

Food-grade silicone is usually machine washable, making it easy to clean. For use in the microwave or resistance to high temperatures, always follow the manufacturer's guidance for the specific model.

The dividers let you separate different food groups, help control portions and make mealtimes more appealing and varied, encouraging the child's independence at the table.

The plates are made from materials suited to children's use and, where stated, free from harmful substances such as BPA. Even so, it's recommended to always use them under adult supervision during meals.
