Fresh Baby Kids Portion Plate and So Easy Toddler Cookbook Value Pack Review & Giveaway



From the time Kaelyn first began eating table foods, I made it my priority to not only make sure she was given healthy foods, but that they were made with and served on high quality, safe products. In my search for healthy options, I was introduced to Fresh Baby early on and am so happy I was.

Fresh Baby was born in October 2002 when two women, Cheryl and Joan, began developing products for today's busy parents and caregivers. It was, and continues to be their desire to give them the products and tools necessary to make making homemade baby food easy, healthy and delicious. They are committed to preventing childhood obesity and supporting parents by providing products that encourage healthy eating habits. With everything from homemade baby food kits, baby food cookbooks, kids portion plates and more...parents are sure to find the products they need to help develop healthy eating habits for their child from the first bite.

I have several of the Fresh Baby Food Trays and have used them to make both my kids homemade baby food. They are wonderful! The quality is fantastic and I love knowing that they're made with safe materials. I've been impressed with how well they've held up and recommend them to new moms all the time.

Having had such a great experience with Fresh Baby products in the past, I was especially excited to hear that they have come out with three new products this year. We were sent the Kids Portion Plate and So Easy Toddler Cookbook Value Pack to review.

When the products arrived, I was looking forward to checking them out.
I was immediately drawn to the colorful Kids Portion Plate and had a feeling it would be something my kids would love. I was right! It's extremely durable and great quality. Made from 100% Melamine, this plate is free of Lead, BP-A & Phthalates. It's also dishwasher safe which has made clean up a breeze!

Of course, one of the neatest things about the Kids Portion Plate is that it provides you a little extra support in making your child's mealtime more healthy. The plate contains 3 divided sections that are appropriately sized for fruits & Vegetables, Proteins and Grains. I love it! The colorful theme really emphasizes a healthy lifestyle: being active and eating a rainbow of colors. Both my kids really love using this plate.

I love the fact that it comes with the So Easy Toddler Food Book as well! My son is a great eater, but my daughter has always been more picky. I love that this book gives great recipes that are healthy and ones kids are sure to love. We've tried a couple already and have been very impressed. I would say our favorites would have to be the Banana Strawberry Smoothie and Breakfast Burrito!

It's packed full of family-friendly, simple recipes that make it easy & fun to make healthy meals. With 35 recipes (including photos and nutrition facts), this is probably one of my new favorite cookbooks. It even has advice and tips for converting picky eaters, which I love as well!

I have really enjoyed both the Kid's Portion Plate and So Easy Toddler Cookbook. My kids love eating on the plate and I like how both that and the yummy recipes and have encouraged better eating habits from both of them. I would highly recommend these products (as well as other Fresh Baby products) to parents of young children.

Buy It: You can purchase the Kids Portion Plate and So Easy Toddler Cookbook Value Pack as a set for a suggested retail price of $12.95.

Win It: One very lucky reader is going to win a Kids Portion Plate and So Easy Toddler Cookbook Value Pack of their own!
