The Catch Bowl, as the name suggests, is designed to catch spillage as food makes it perilous journey from the bowl to your toddler's mouth. It also has a wide suction cup around the bottom of the bowl for stabilizing and securing the bowl to a feeding tray, table or counter. Despite its suction-cup bottom, the Catch Bowl and its contents usually end up on the floor at our house. The fact that the bowl sticks slightly to his tray may have made it more of an intriguing challenge, but one which our tester nonetheless overcame with a flourish.
This will probably work well for children at just the right stage. If you like specialized tableware that's stylish to boot, the Catch Bowl may be right for your little learner.
Available in off-white/white, orange/off-white, and pink/white.
We are not familiar with the angelic child modeling this on the Boon website and our tester tends to get upset when we actually try to interlock the pieces - (he’s a take-er apart-er, not a putt-er together-er), but we all love using the orange side-bowls for his small serving, on-the-go snacks. We will often put a small amount of fruit, raisins, cheese, etc. in the small bowls and set them on the platform of his learning tower where he can access them. As he circles the room he stops by and scoops up no more than a handful of anything at a time which he eats while he cruises off somewhere else.
If he gets distracted by the gravity testing, it's much less to clean up than a whole bowl, plate or tray full or food. We take the little bowls with us to friends' houses too - when we put food in them and set it somewhere he can reach, he knows it’s for him.
The modular nature of this set makes it fun and functional, and we're confident it will continue to function well for us as the tester grows and his needs change. The Groovy has achieved its ends and has become a much-used item in our household.
