Product Information
Full details
The Tiny Dining Silicone Suction Plate in Pink is designed for parents supporting baby-led weaning. Its primary benefit is the strong suction base that significantly reduces mealtime mess by preventing spills and plate-flinging. A potential caveat is that the suction may be less effective on certain textured surfaces. This plate is molded from food-safe silicone and features a segmented design ideal for introducing multiple foods and keeping flavors separate for picky eaters.

FAQs
Is the Tiny Dining Silicone Suction Plate safe for my baby?
Yes, the plate is made from 100% food-safe silicone, free from BPA, PVC, and phthalates, ensuring it is safe for your baby's meals.
What age is this plate suitable for?
This plate is ideal for babies starting solids, particularly those engaged in baby-led weaning, typically from around 6 months old, and can be used as they grow.
How many food compartments does it have?
The plate features multiple segmented compartments designed to hold different types of food separately.
Can I put this plate in the microwave?
No, this silicone plate is not microwave-safe. It is suitable for refrigerator storage and dishwasher cleaning.
How do I get the best suction?
Ensure both the plate's suction base and the surface (highchair tray or table) are clean and completely dry before pressing down firmly to create a seal.

What other products coordinate with this plate?
You can complete the collection with matching Tiny Dining bibs, bowls, cups, and cutlery, as well as snack pots.
Troubleshooting
Plate is not sticking to the surface.
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Check that the suction base of the plate is also clean and free of debris. Press down firmly around the entire rim to create a seal.
Food stains on the plate.
Soak the plate in a mild bleach solution (1 part bleach to 2 parts water) for a few hours or overnight, then wash thoroughly. Alternatively, place in direct sunlight for a day, as UV rays can help fade stains.
Plate has a lingering odor.
Wash immediately after use with warm, soapy water. If odor persists, soak in a baking soda and water paste, or a mild vinegar solution, then rinse and dry completely.
Suction weakens over time.
Ensure the plate is completely dry before use and storage. Periodically check the suction base for any damage or warping. Thorough cleaning can sometimes restore grip.

Cons
- Suction may be less effective on very rough or uneven surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To use, simply press the plate firmly onto a clean, dry, and smooth surface. Ensure the suction base is flat against the tray or tabletop. A slight downward pressure all around the rim helps create a secure seal.
Compatibility: This plate is designed to adhere to most smooth, non-porous surfaces, including standard highchair trays, kitchen countertops, and dining tables. It may not form a strong seal on porous, textured, or very uneven surfaces.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wash with warm, soapy water after each use. Alternatively, the plate is top-rack dishwasher safe for convenient cleaning.
- Drying: Air dry thoroughly or pat dry with a soft cloth. Ensure no moisture is trapped under the suction base before storing.
- Storage: Store in a clean, dry place. Avoid abrasive cleaning tools or harsh chemicals that could damage the silicone.
