Munchkin Love-a-Bowls

As part of my role as a Munchkin/Lindam Blogger for 2015, I've been given the opportunity to try out some amazing products from their range. One of the items we received were the Love-a-Bowls.

The Love-a-Bowls set contains four bowls, four lids and two spoons.

The bowls are quite small so I don't use them with C (2.5 years old) as his portion size would be bigger but they're the only bowls I use with my 8 month old daughter. I love that they have lids as sometimes she won't finish everything so I can put a lid on a stick it in the fridge for the following day with no hassle. Alternatively, if we are going out I can put snacks in the bowls, put the lid on and not worry about them spilling everywhere in the changing bag. The spoons are soft tipped which make them perfect for the beginning stages of weaning.

The colours are bright and my toddler likes to point out the colours so I guess they can be educational too! The ridges on the side make them easy to hold and they stack up easily for storage purposes.

The bowls are 100% spill-proof, leak-proof and break-proof and they are suitable for dishwashers, microwaves and freezers. They are the easiest bowls to clean too!

The Munchkin Love-a-Bowl set is suitable for ages 6 months+ and retails at only £4.99! You can find out more about the range at the Munchkin website or follow them on Facebook and Twitter.

Haberman Toddler Cups - Review

Haberman are a range of baby products that are designed to market innovative baby and toddler feeding products to help build confidence and independence. 

C was lucky enough to be sent two of their toddler cups to test out. He usually uses straw cups but we really worry about the effect that they are having on his teeth and gums. 

Firstly, we tried out the anywayup Cow Beaker (£4.99). 

I love the little design on this one. At the beginning, I did think he'd struggle as he isn't used to tipping a cup up to get his juice out but he surprised me. The only times he'd get really frustrated was when he'd almost finished his juice and was trying to get the last remnants out but we've perserved. The shape of the beaker makes it really easy for him to hold and it's very easy to wash. As you can probably tell by the name "anywayup", the clever spout doesn't spill any juice out when it is left tipped over or held upside down. 

This beaker is recommended for children aged 12months+, it has a 250ml capacity, is BPA free and is also dishwasher and microwave safe. 

Next, we tried the 360° Junior Beaker (£5.95). 

I must be honest and say that C has been less than impressed with this beaker which is the complete opposite to how I feel about it! When I first opened it out and filled it, I ran in shrieking, "oh my goodness this is the best cup ever!" The rim is made from a rubbery material and there are little slits the entire way around so your child can drink from anywhere around it. The juice only comes out when there is pressure on it so I can hold it upside down and nothing will spill! 

C is currently finding it a bit hard to work out how to use it but as it's recommended for children aged 24months+ and C is only turning 2 at the end of September, we still have time yet. I will definitely be teaching him as much as I can because it's such a great design for a toddler cup and it will help the transition from beaker to proper cup! 

This beaker also has a 250ml capacity, is BPA free and dishwasher and microwave safe. As you can see, we received the blue cup but it is also available in green and red too. 

We have also been lucky enough to receive some breast feeding goodies from Haberman so please look out for those on the blog once this baby decides to make an appearance!
