I pack them whenever we have to leave the house during a meal. He has a lot of allergies that prevent us from buying a meal at a restaurant for him. At home we don't use bentos and just use a plate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-using-bentos#post-898914 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 14:01:48 +0000 autumnlove 898914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>11 months at daycare! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-using-bentos#post-898908 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 13:58:00 +0000 heffalump 898908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is almost two and we don't use them yet. But I'm a SAHM, the plan is to start once she starts going to school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-using-bentos#post-898899 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 13:56:17 +0000 hilsy85 898899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the idea of bentos, mainly because I think it's a great way to keep different foods organized. But I think LO is still too young--I feel like if I put one in front of him, he'd take all the compartments out and throw everything all over! I don't know that he's got the coordination to reach into separate little cups to pick stuff out (but maybe I'm not giving him enough credit??). He's 8.5 months old...when did you start giving your LOs bentos? </p>
