Dinnerware and Independence

Let’s talk independence. Have you ever had your child ask to use a ceramic/porcelain dish vs a child-friendly unbreakable dish? I have been there and done that, which is why I currently have an un-even set of ceramic dishes, let alone the time spent vacuuming and trying not to miss every speck of broken dish, which seem to travel at the speed of light and great distance. How does a dish that broke on the tiled kitchen floor make it into our foyer? I tell myself every time that I should have just given my son a plastic dish, but then he wouldn’t learn how to be aware of his surroundings and how his actions have consequences.

As parents, we want to provide the best for our children which also includes teaching them independence, all while keeping them safe, and being mindful of our impact on the environment. That is where the Bobo&Boo Dinnerware collection comes in to save the day!

Bobo&Boo plant-based dinnerware sets are a great option for both the environment and for encouraging independence in our children. The set is plant-based, made from all-natural and sustainable crop fibres, making them eco-friendly, 100% biodegradable and compostable. The sustainability alone will help our planet for years to come. Did you know that traditional plastic dinnerware can take hundreds of years to breakdown in landfills?

Bobo& Boo comes in dinnerware sets, bowls, plates and cup options and they come in bright and fun colours, even my seven-year-old enjoys using them.  So, if you are looking to make mealtime more enjoyable for kids, all while keeping your sanity by not having to clean a gazillion pieces, give Bobo&Boo a try!
