We get a lot of email about dishware here at SafeMama. What’s safe, what do you recommend, is this brand safe, etc. So when I stumbled on the new Skip*Hop Mate (Mat plus plate… how cute) I new I had to share. This adorable kids dish has a 3 compartment plate that pops into the no-skid mat, as well as comes with utensils that pop on and off the mat as well. The best part, all the pieces are BPA, Phthalate and PVC free. The company says all parts are dishwasher safe (top rack) but a decent hand wash seems sufficient in most cases. This stylish meal set runs about $20 and comes in orange, hot pink and blue.
