When I was offered to review a feeding set from Think Baby I almost passed because, well, I don't have a baby anymore. Thing is though, this product is not just for babies. It is an extremely useful set that can be used for kids of any age and is just as useful for food storage as it is for feeding, extending it's life far beyond babyhood. I'm a big fan of products with multiple uses so I decided to accept a sample.
What do you get when you buy a Think Baby feeding set? You get 2 bowls with lids, a bento box, a drinking cup and a fork and spoon. But you really get much more than that. The lidded bowls are great for storing food - and not just baby food. I've got homemade almond butter in one of mine right now. The bento box was the perfect size for a sandwich in my son's lunch box (until he lost it at camp - so sad.) The cup is one of my 5 year old's favorites. The only thing we aren't still using are the utensils. How could it be improved? A sippy cup lid for the cup would mean the cup could be used on-the-go as well as at the table.
The other thing you get when you use Think Baby is peace of mind. All of the products are free of yucky chems that you just don't want mingling with your child's food: BPA, PVC, lead, phthalates and nitrosamines. The products are also made without melamine, a material commonly used in children's feeding sets but that has been out of favor lately. Instead the pieces are made with durable polypropylene (one of the safer plastics) and lined with food grade stainless steel.
How would you like to try one out for yourself? Think Baby is giving away a feeding set to one Mindful Momma reader. Just leave a comment on this post with the reason why you would like to try Think Baby. The contest will run through midnight, central time on Tuesday, November 10th (only one entry per person and you must have a US shipping address.)
{Full Disclosure: I received a feeding set from Think Baby at no cost. This review is based on my own personal opinion of the product.}
The winner of a Think Baby feeding set is Alysia who said "I have a 10 month old and just figuring out how to travel with her food without mess, especially the home made stuff! I love the idea of the product: the design, the fun orange color, but mostly the relief of 'this is a safe place for my babys food' - especially with the newest consumer report about hidden BPAs! I would love to try it."

Please enter me in your draw. I am always looking for eco-friendly options for my two littles. Thank you!

To avoid plastics, we use mostly glass or ceramic - not ideal for a toddler who is into throwing things from the dinner table! I would love to try these out. Thank you for the generous giveaway!

I have a two year old great nephew that would think these are cool and I would know they are better than plastic and don't break!

I would love to try these because I too am trying to limit plastic storage, but glass is not best for little ones! Thanks for the opportunity!

I would love the Think Baby feeding set. I've spent the past year trying to switch to safer cleaning, personal care and baby products. There's so much to worry about. I've been reusing glass baby food jars for my 8 month old, but something non-glass and less limited would be fantastic.

I would love to win this set.It would be wonderful to have something safe and sturdier then the ceramic I am using now. It looks cooler too!

ooo, I would LOVE to win this. We've been looking for some stainless steel container options for our little one. Plus, that cup looks like the perfect starter cup to make the switch from the trusty 'ole sippy.

This looks awesome!! We would love to have one of these around our house. We are always on the lookout for good containers, this looks like a good one!

I always wanted to use their bottles, but my son is getting too old for that now, we use mostly plastic dishes for my toddler since I don't want him breaking others, these are a great alternative!

I'm always looking for safe containers to pack my lunch in. Those look great. I know I'd use them for my kids and for myself all the time.

It's really funny, we just saw Think Baby at a store near us and my husband fell in love with it-we are always on the go with Ethan and it would come in handy, plus we love that the pieces are stainless steel and not plastic!!!
Posted by: Danielle | November 04, 2009 at 06:31 AM
What a wonderful product! I would love to try Think Baby because it's stainless steel, for one, and because I have two toddlers and a new baby on the way and this is one product that looks like it could hold up to the "lovin'" that we could give.
Posted by: Katie | November 04, 2009 at 06:47 AM
First of all this looks like an awesome product in general... I would love to own this set as I am constantly trying to find things new and better for my child. I think these would be the perfect solution to a lot of different needs in our household, for the little one! :) Thank you for your consideration!
Posted by: Victoria | November 04, 2009 at 07:24 AM
Why would I like to try this product? It looks perfect for us! Our baby just started eating, and we have no small dishware for her yet!
Posted by: Kate Cooper | November 04, 2009 at 09:47 AM
My son Haydin would love to try this set as so far we have tried many and they all fall short in one way or another. The main thing that catches my attention with this is, just like you said, it transitions to remain useful. Definitely a great eco-purposed set!
Posted by: Kate | November 04, 2009 at 11:24 AM
With my job disturbances from environmental hormones are a real consideration so I minimize them in my own life especially after having my baby. It's great to see yet another option (and a trendy cute one at that).

This would be awesome for my two little ones, perfect for our crazy lives.

Cool, How can I join? this would be fun and I think their products are reliable and very dependable so I heard.

I have been using glass bowls for my baby but she is quickly learning how to grab/move the bowl so I'd love something non-breakable. Great products!

I'm always looking for plastic-free options for toddler feeding. And these are cute!
