WHAT SHOULD MY CHILD EAT?
Every child is unique and has varying nutritional requirements. Knowing how much and what your child should eat can be confusing. So we've created pediatrician-developed guides and tools to help!
Our products are not just dishes, they are educational tools to encourage a lifetime of healthy habits.
"When I’m a mom, I’m NEVER doing that with my kids!” If I had a dollar for every time I said that to my mom as a kid and did exactly what she did when I became a mother… Mom always made sure I ate and drank from stainless steel plates, flatware, and cups. I thought it was just an Indian thing (and it certainly is). But it’s one of the safest choices you can make for your children.
As a new entrepreneur, I had no idea what this journey would be like - all I knew was that it was a journey worth taking because it involved solving a significant problem that faced children’s health.This year has brought so many amazing things for our small business with a BIG mission.
What is (and particularly what isn’t) on children’s plates in the United States is prime evidence of the economic fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic. Right before the current health crisis hit, childhood food insecurity affected a staggering 15 million children. Without the consistency of school meals, as well as many households losing income, that number has grown to about 18 million.
