No, your fork is not defective—we’ve purposely curved the tines on our fork. We know that kids are still mastering self-feeding and can get frustrated when it gets tough.

Curved tines help create a deep head to scoop and keep food on the fork. The outer curve also helps pierce the food, which can be trickier than it looks when you’re first learning.

In addition to our own classic Spoon + Fork Set, our licenses with Disney and Sanrio mean that we have a fun character for everyone.

While making mealtime easier is our goal, we love to keep it fun for your little one, too. Dining with Mickey Mouse and other favorite characters is sure to do the trick.

Silicone is pretty phenomenal, and when you pair it with stainless steel, you have a great set of utensils for your little one.

Our silicone is food-safe and provides a soft, comfortable grip around the sturdy 18/8 stainless steel. Together, these utensils are ready for any meal you can throw at them.

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.

All of our products are tested by third-party labs to meet all US safety standards as established in the CPSIA. Our silicone is tested for:

Silicone is extremely durable, which means it's dishwasher safe. Wash your Bumkins dishware however you see fit, but rest assured, the days of handwashing dishes are in the past with silicone.

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.

When you're little, eating is important work. That's why most of our Grip Dishes have a straight edge, so your little one can get their rumbly tummy right next to that dish and feast away.

Plus, a smooth edge keeps crumbs and spills at bay since your little one can belly-up to their dish.

In addition to our own classic Unicorn, Dino, and Football Grip Dish, our licenses with Disney, Sanrio, and DC Comics mean that we have a fun character for everyone.

While making mealtime easier is our goal, we love to keep it fun for your little one, too. Dining with Mickey Mouse and other favorite characters is sure to do the trick.

Our Bumkins Grip Dish has the perfect lid companion. With its frosted see-through top and easy-pull tab, you can easily store leftovers or prep ahead. Plus, our lid has a writeable 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.

Don't worry; our Bumkins First Feeding Sets also come with a lid for storage, and all of our 5 Section Grip Dishes come paired with a lid.

Our adjustable tie closure means you can fit the Long-Sleeved Smock exactly as you need. Plus, our waterproof material wraps around your little one's shoulders and back for that extra bit of coverage.

We’ve always wondered how tots manage to get food and paint on their backs, but with these extra touches, we’re doing our best to protect those clothes from stains.

All of our bibs and smocks feature a handy catch-all pocket so you can spend less time cleaning messes off your tot's lap and off of the floor. Self-feeding will be messy, leaving our pockets up for the task of catching those runaway crumbs and bites.

Plus, as your little one grows and can ditch the bib functionality, the Long-Sleeved Smock can function as an art smock. Store those handy craft supplies in close quarters with the convenient pockets.

Bumkins' signature waterproof fabric is both soft and strong. Tough enough for daily use and easy to wash, it stands up to messes big and small.

Unlike other fabrics, our fabric doesn't have a stiff layer of plastic backing. With our colorfast technology, our prints and designs will stay bright and colorful for many washes to come! Learn more about our signature fabric.

At Bumkins, we're all parents. We know there's no end to the laundry, so we've made it even easier for you. You can toss that smock into the washing machine.

Our lightweight waterproof fabric also means that our smocks dry really fast. A handy tip? Rinse and wash your smock in the kitchen sink, then hang it to dry. It'll be ready for next mealtime or craft time.
