Critter Divider Plates

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Adorable Animal Dishware Set Adds Playfulness to Meal Time

— November 23, 2015 — Special
These adorable critter divider plates are an ideal way to encourage fussy eaters to become more engaged at meal time with the designs of adorable animal faces lorning at the bottom of each dish. The plates are also made from maple wood offering a sustainable and natural design element.

Making meal time more enjoyable for children can be something that is on the mind of many parents, and dishware that features fun designs is a great way to entice kids to interact more with their food. These plates come in a variety of styles modelled after animals like monkeys, pigs and cats in an anime style. The details of the faces are engraved into the wood while various parts -- such as the ears -- are turned into divided sections for fussy eaters.
