Each dish has been expertly crafted from natural 100% bamboo and is melamine free. This provides incredible strength and resilience while also enjoying all the inherent anti-bacterial and anti-microbial qualities of the bamboo plant. Perfectly designed for meals at all times of day, the segmented unicorn design of this plate allows you to keep foods separated for easy feeding, while the heat-resistant properties of bamboo keep tiny fingers protected should they reach out and touch the sides. The star of this particular culinary show, however, is the large "stay put" suction cup - attach to the base of your plate, press down onto the table top or high chair, and relax as the dish remains firmly fixed in place - no more of those social media pictures, thank you very much! Once feeding time is over, simply pull the tiny tab on the edge of the suction pad to release.
This guide is for parents seeking a mess-free and safe mealtime solution for their toddlers. The Tiny Dining Unicorn Bamboo Suction Plate in Pink offers a unique "stay put" suction technology combined with natural bamboo construction, significantly reducing plate-tipping incidents. A potential caveat is that the suction may be less effective on certain textured surfaces. Key features include its secure suction base, durable and antibacterial bamboo material, a segmented unicorn design for food separation, and heat-resistant properties to protect little fingers.

What makes the plate 'stay put'?
It features an innovative "stay put" suction technology with a large suction cup on the base that adheres firmly to smooth, non-porous tabletops or high chair trays, preventing it from being tipped over.

What is the benefit of the segmented design?

Will the suction work on any surface?
The suction works best on smooth, clean, and non-porous surfaces such as plastic, laminate, or sealed wood. It may not adhere effectively to textured, porous, or fabric surfaces.
How do I remove the suction cup?
Simply pull the small tab located on the edge of the suction pad to release the seal easily and detach the plate from the surface.
Troubleshooting
Plate is not sticking to the surface
Ensure the surface and the suction cup are clean and completely dry. The surface must be smooth and non-porous. Try pressing down more firmly on the center of the plate to create a seal.
Suction cup is difficult to release
Gently lift the release tab located on the edge of the suction cup. If it's still stuck, try running a little warm water around the edge of the suction cup to help break the seal.
Plate has developed a stain
Try making a paste of baking soda and water, applying it to the stain, letting it sit for a few minutes, and then gently scrubbing and rinsing. Avoid prolonged contact with highly pigmented foods.
Bamboo has a slight odor
Bamboo can sometimes have a natural odor. Ensure the plate is thoroughly washed and dried after each use. Exposure to fresh air can also help dissipate any lingering smells.
