24.01.2022 Does your baby have a favourite spoon? We made a conscious decision not to supply a spoon with our bowls because we believe using a favourite spoon helps to create a familiar ritual. Children from a young age need to experience a range of textures, flavours and foods in their diet. Building familiarity is the first step in helping them to accept a wider variety of foods; something that babies do through the rituals and routines that they engage in. For example, visual cues ...to eat include bibs, spoons, highchairs, plates, cups, and the table. As children become familiar with the food environment, they build eating skills too. So, we suggest using your baby’s favourite spoon with our range of Baby Bowls (even when out of home) to create familiar mealtime habits and rituals that can you can enjoy together. It's also better for the environment not to include a throwaway spoon, and importantly we wanted to avoid any potential choking hazards with a small plastic spoon.
21.01.2022 Is that nearly a hole-in-one Macy?! Snacks are a great way to begin developing your baby’s motor skills by supporting their pincer grip and coordinating complex food shapes in their mouths; all so important for a developing eater!
21.01.2022 As baby's transition from our Baby Bellies range and into toddlerhood with our Little Bellies range, our aim is to continue to provide new snacks and meals without unnecessary sugars, salt or additives. Our happy bellies pledge for our Little Bellies snacks (for 12+ months) is very similar to our Baby Bellies range. For the majority of this toddler range, we follow the philosophy of our Baby Bellies products, where we don’t include any added sugar or salt at all. However, you... will find some wholegrain biscuits sweetened with grape juice and some snacks with cheese in this range. Our rule is simple, we only add fruit juices in place of cane sugar or salt where the traditional recipe requires it for taste or texture, and we are careful to only add it when needed. Use our Happy Bellies pledge on the front of the pack as a reference so you can clearly see the products that don't contain any added sugars or salts at all. No artificial colours, flavours or additives. No unnecessary sugar or salt. No pseudo-confectionery.

19.01.2022 In an age of mindful eating and smoothie bowls, we think it’s about time it’s bubs’ turn! Eating from a bowl with a spoon, even if out of home, encourages meals and snacks to become sit-down occasions. We want to make it easier for you to ensure mealtimes are a time to sit together and enjoy mindful eating practices and behaviours including listening to the body. Spoon-feeding is particularly important for budding eaters as it facilitates eating and enjoying meals one mou...thful at a time; a mindful motion that gives little bodies time to signal fullness and respects their natural ability to regulate their food intake. The Organic Baby Bowls are now available at Woolworths Australia.

16.01.2022 We love spooning! Our new purées are in bowls to encourage interactive spoon-feeding! Eating with a spoon from our see-through bowls means true interaction between you and your baby and helps little ones see, touch, and smell their food. Spoon-feeding is especially important in aiding healthy development of oral motor skills. ... Self-feeding and spoon-feeding require head control, leaning in, cupping the tongue under the spoon, and holding the purée in the mouth. Using a favourite spoon also helps to create a familiar ritual important in helping babies become more comfortable accepting a wider variety of foods in their diet.
15.01.2022 We think we now know what snack heaven looks like! Rory is a long time fan our Mighty Bellies Lentil Puffs, his personal favourite are the Salt and Vinegar but don't forget about our BBQ flavour, they are just as delicious! We suggest serving the puffs with fresh fruit and vegetables to load the plate up with an array of colours and textures.

13.01.2022 Did you know our products come in all different shapes and flavours?

09.01.2022 Do you have a future veg lover at home? Our new Veggie bowls have been intentionally designed to contain only pure veg, with no added or hidden fruit sugars. We love fruit and use it as a delicious and key ingredient in many of our bowls, but we also believe it is so important for babies to learn to love veg too. ... Babies’ palates are clean slates, and we believe it's important they learn to love veggies without hidden fruit sugars. By hiding vegetables in fruit, we could be teaching babies to have a preference for sweet tasting foods. Importantly, unmasked veggie bowls also allow babies to start to learn and understand sweet vs. savoury flavours
09.01.2022 There is so much more to mealtime for babies than just eating for nutrition! Spoon feeding from a bowl is important in aiding the development of motor skills and feeding behaviors, including being able to see the food they’re eating, which is one of our many reasons of Why we Love Spooning! Spoon feeding from a bowl allows babies to see the vibrant colours of the purées and will help baby to recognise and love what they are eating. This visual interaction with food helps little ones see, touch and smell their food.
