Groovy By Boon {Review & Giveaway}

I am a huge fan of Boon Inc! They have the most innovative baby and toddler products! I have been waiting patiently for my chance to review one of their great products, and I was so excited to finally get that chance!

We were sent the Groovy to review. Groovy is one of the many great feeding products Boon offers. Here is the product description from their website:

Engaging kids at mealtime can be a challenge. What better way to keep their interest than to give them their own special plate? Groovy offers a fun way to serve meals in a customizable configuration. This interlocking plate and bowl set includes a toddler-sized plate with two separate compartments plus two small bowls that attach to the edge of the plate in a variety of positions. The small bowls are perfect for dipping—always an engaging activity at mealtime—or for serving small portions.

I know all too well how difficult toddlers can be at mealtime. I have learned that if you give them fun utensils, it entices them to eat more. The Groovy is definitely fun! We served Rylie her dinner in the Groovy and she actually ate more than she usually does. She enjoyed moving the small bowls around to where she wanted them on her plate, and she really liked having those little bowls of ketchup to dip her fish sticks in.



She was definitely a happy little eater!



What I really like about the Groovy is that it is BpA, Phthalate and PVC free! I feel better when my children eat with plates and utensils that don't have all of those harmful chemicals in them. Another feature of the Groovy that is great is the slip-resistant base. If you have ever had a dinner mishap in which a plate full of food landed on the floor, you will definitely appreciate this feature. It is also scratch-resistant and dishwasher safe. Groovy is a great plate for meal time, and I highly recommend it!

Groovy retails for $12.99 and you can purchase it directly from Boon's website, or many other local retailers.

Not only does Boon have a fabulous line of feeding products, they also make bath toys, storage and organization solutions, and these great stuffed animal storage bags that can be used as furniture. You can check out more of their products at Booninc.com. You can also find them on Facebook and Twitter, and you can keep up with the latest Boon news on their blog.
