~~~ NEW ~~~ NEW ~~~ NEW ~~~ BOXED ALWAYS FAST SHIPPING ! The BABYBJÖRN GREEN Plate and Spoon make it easier for children to eat by themselves. The three-leaf clover shape of the plate makes it easier for the child to scoop up food with his spoon rather than pushing it around in circles. The plate has a rubber base that makes sure it stands steadily on the table, and the shape of the edge makes it harder for small hands to grab the plate and throw it away. The BABYBJÖRN Spoon has a short handle that is easy for small hands to grip. It is designed to make it easy to pick up food on the spoon and to work with the shape of the plate. The BABYBJÖRN Spoon can naturally be used with either hand, and is also available separately. Both the BABYBJÖRN Plate and Spoon are dishwasher-safe and can be heated in the microwave to a maximum of 90°C/194°F. The materials are classified as food-safe. Creating Plate and Spoon Most plates and cutlery are made for people who don’t feel the need to use them to test the laws of gravity. They’re made for people who don’t wonder what a plate full of porridge sounds like when it hits the floor. Children have a slightly different take on things. So when BABYBJÖRN decided to develop a plate and spoon, they were eager to find out what our customers really needed. BABYBJÖRN studied children while they ate, and noted that: - children often grip the spoon at the far end of the handle - children switch between using their left and right hands up until about the age of three – so a good spoon must be usable in either hand - round plates and bowls make it hard to scoop food onto the spoon, they’re easier to slide around on the table, and they’re easier to turn upside down or throw onto the floor. So what did BABYBJÖRN do? It was important for BABYBJÖRN – as always – to focus on user-friendliness. They developed the spoon first: a spoon that is thicker at the end of the handle, to make it easier to hold. They also added a notch on the underside to stop it from sliding down into the bowl. As for the plate, they added a rubber ring on the underside to stop it from sliding around. They made the plate a three-leaf clover shape with corners inside and edges that slope slightly inwards. This made it easier to scoop food onto the spoon. They made the outer edges of the plate sloping, to make it harder for the child to bang it up and down or to throw it away. Done! The entire process from concept to product took four years. Both products underwent countless detailed tests by families with small children and test institutes. And they were made from a food-safe plastic that is both dishwasher and microwave-safe. The result is the BabyBjörn Plate and Spoon that make it easy for children to eat by themselves.
