Bumkins Baby Silicone Sensory Placemat for Babies and Toddlers

The Bumkins Silicone Sensory Placemat is designed to keep mealtime surfaces clean while its textured design helps babies learn through touch during baby-led weaning. This lightweight, non-slip feeding mat fits and sticks to most highchairs, making it ideal for serving soft foods and small bites directly on the mat. The center of the mat has a smooth surface that may be used with the Bumkins First Feeding bowl (sold separately).

The raised inner edge of the placemat catches food and spills, while the outer edge is sloped downward to meet the edge of tables, making it harder for little ones to pull up. The mat is made with 100% food-safe platinum silicone, and is BPA-free, PVC-free, phthalate-free, and lead-free. It is also dishwasher-safe, making it easy to clean.

The textured surface design of the Bumkins Silicone Sensory Placemat is essential for baby-led weaning, as it helps babies explore and learn through touch during this feeding method. The smooth-surfaced center of the mat allows the Bumkins' First Feeding bowl to stick securely, providing a convenient and mess-free way to serve soft foods and small bites.

Bumkins uses the highest quality curing process to ensure that their silicone products do not result in the creation of any by-products, guaranteeing the purity of the silicone. The company's commitment to quality is further evidenced by their use of third-party labs to ensure their products comply with CPSC and CPSIA standards for BPA, lead, and phthalates.

It's important to note that the "pinch test" often cited as a way to determine if silicone has fillers is not a reliable scientific test. Authentic Bumkins products are packaged with the company's logo, ensuring the quality and safety of their products.

The Bumkins Silicone Sensory Placemat is easy to clean, as it can be hand-washed or placed in the top rack of the dishwasher. For a deeper clean, the mat can even be boiled. However, it's important to note that silicone can absorb scents, so it's recommended to clean the mat with an unscented, natural detergent.

Overall, the Bumkins Silicone Sensory Placemat is a versatile and practical tool for parents, designed to make mealtime easier and more enjoyable for both babies and caregivers. Its textured design, food-safe materials, and easy cleaning make it a valuable addition to any baby-led weaning setup.
