Once your little one is beyond the dish-throwing stage, you may wonder why a suction base is so important. Well, when your little one is putting a lot of power behind scooping and piercing their foods, the dish tends to slide around the tabletop, causing more food-chasing than food-eating.

Thankfully, the suction base helps stabilize those dishes so your little one can focus on the good stuff — getting those yummy bites into their tummy!

We know it can be frustrating to work hard at scooping, only to have the food fall out of the dish. Our deep interior walls help little ones grab and scoop food. The inside walls are also sloped, allowing utensils to glide for maximum scooping.

With its frosted see-through top and easy-pull tab, you can easily store leftovers or prep ahead. Plus, our lid has a write-on surface. Using any dry erase, wet erase, or washable marker, you can remember when it was made or who it belongs to.

Our Silicone Stretch Lid is designed to snuggly wrap around your Grip Dish, keeping food fresh inside. While not completely water-tight, our lid is tried and true to withstand most spills.

Silicone is extremely durable, easy to care for, and safe to use. During creation, silicone can be "cured" with two types of curing agents. We use the best one - platinum. When cured with platinum, there are no by-products created, and the silicone's already fabulous qualities are amplified. Learn more about our platinum silicone.

Silicone is extremely durable, which means it's safe in nearly all appliances. Heat safe up to 400°F/204°C so you can cook or reheat your little one's favorite foods in a snap! If you've warmed it up too much, you can go straight from microwave to freeze for a quick cool down.

Silicone is also dishwasher safe. Wash your Bumkins dishware however you see fit, but rest assured, the days of handwashing dishes are in the past with silicone.
