VUP Baby - RICE Tableware

VUP baby (very useful products) has a very comprehensive website, full of non toxic baby products from around the world. We have previously reviewed a becopotty and Melissa & Doug musical instrument set for them, and now Jack has been sent a gorgeous Rice Dinner plate and cutlery set  (in red) to put through their paces.

  

The melamine dinner plate is 25cm in diameter, being a good size for growing appetites and has a lovely vehicles design which Jack loves. The plate is BPA, PVC and Phthalate free and is safe for dishwasher use.

The fork and spoon set is also BPA, PVC and phthalate free and is a good size for little hands when they start to feed themselves. It would be nice to see a knife within this range as we're starting to introduce Jack to a knife and this would complete the set nicely.

Both items are made by Rice, a Danish homewares and accessories company, known for colourful melamine, handmade baskets and storage as well as hand glazed Italian tableware, and they are lovely quality. 


The cutlery set had a small label attached explaining how it had been produced with a clear conscience in the third world with respect for people. Child labour is not used and the workers employed are treated properly, enabling Rice to obtain the SA 8000 certification, a Social Accountability standard, proving their commitment.

great for larger appetites
