I found a couple on sale at Target that had things LO was interested in (Trains, cars) and he doesn't often throw them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-plate-and-bowl#post-1382163 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:48:38 +0000 Mommy Finger 1382163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When is the throwing stage over????? :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-plate-and-bowl#post-1382153 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:46:15 +0000 travelgirl1 1382153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought a pack of the colourful plastic Ikea plates after her cute Peter Rabbit plate shattered from too many throws off the highchair, ha ha.

They have great matching snack bowls too. I also have a small stash of Munchkin bowls and plates for when he gets bigger or if I want to change it up a bit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-plate-and-bowl#post-1381940 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 14:46:08 +0000 looch 1381940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used regular plates, I didn't have a lot of choice when my son began eating food, so I used what I had.</p> <p>I don't see the point of divided plates, we don't eat that way, so I am not sure why my kid should. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-plate-and-bowl#post-1381937 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 14:45:31 +0000 mrsjyw 1381937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use oxo ones with a lil grip on the bottom. Got them for cheap at tjmaxx </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-plate-and-bowl#post-1381868 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 14:17:13 +0000 Weagle 1381868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say go with whatever you like, but don't spend a fortune. Cute plates are just that - cute. They don't help your kid eat any better or worse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-plate-and-bowl#post-1381301 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 12:04:31 +0000 autumnlove 1381301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would go straight to the divided plates! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-plate-and-bowl#post-1381279 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 11:59:37 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1381279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use those same replay plates. The suction ones never suctioned well, and the throwing phase doesn't last too long. I say skip the suction and go for a divided plate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-plate-and-bowl#post-1381241 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 11:49:33 +0000 Mommy Finger 1381241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kid throws food and dishes. We bought the suction cup plates and bowls but he is still able to break them free. He figured out that if he pulls them forward, the suction will break once it hits the edge of the table. Sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-plate-and-bowl#post-1381175 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 11:37:11 +0000 Fronkinzankinsbride 1381175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started my nannied kiddo with fancy china plates. He was well monitored and redirected whenever he started to pick up the plate. We haven't had any broken dishes! Now he uses a divided plate made from recycled plastic (re-play I think) It feels very durable but he still doesn't throw dishes. Sometimes he will throw the food though. :) </p> [attach=3443/14/n04e60.600x600.61HfrxZ87JL._SL1500_.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-plate-and-bowl#post-1381117 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 11:18:11 +0000 Smurfette 1381117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right now we just dump R's food on the high chair tray. But she did great using a bowl at my Mom's this weekend. And I think they use a bowl at day care. </p> <p>Plus I figure it would be good to get her started with it. Should I buy suction ones so she can't throw it off? Or just use a divided plate? What works for you? </p>
