When Rico’s parents first introduced solid foods, they quickly realized mealtime wasn’t going to be easy. At 18 months old, Rico was diagnosed with a speech delay. She struggled with oral motor control, which made chewing and swallowing challenging. Her therapists recommended a holistic approach to her development, including engaging feeding tools that would encourage self-feeding and oral motor strength. That’s when they discovered the TalkTools ITSY Silicone Baby Plates Suction — the ultimate baby feeding essentials designed to support every stage of feeding development.
Mealtime Made Simple
Rico’s parents were drawn to these baby plates with suction for their innovative design. The plates’ secure suction feature ensured they stayed firmly in place during mealtime, eliminating messy spills and helping Rico focus on her food. With divided sections, these toddler plates with dipping sections allowed her to explore various textures without overwhelming her. The high walls on the divided plates for kids made it easier for Rico to scoop food onto her spoon, fostering her fine motor skills.
Building Oral Motor Skills
Rico’s speech therapist emphasized the importance of strengthening her jaw and tongue muscles. The baby food plates became an integral part of therapy. The dipping sections encouraged Rico to practice dipping crackers into yogurt or veggies into hummus. This activity stimulated her oral motor skills, a crucial step in improving her ability to form sounds and words. The silicone plates for baby provided a safe, non-toxic surface for her to explore without worry.
From Hesitation to Confidence
In the early days, Rico was hesitant about self-feeding. However, the brightly colored Ocean plate captured her attention, turning mealtime into a fun and engaging activity. These toddler silicone plates proved to be a game-changer. Rico’s parents noticed that as she became more confident in feeding herself, her oral motor strength improved, and she started experimenting with new foods.
The baby food containers also allowed Rico’s parents to prepare and store a variety of meals, ensuring she had access to nutrient-rich options throughout the day. These versatile containers made it easy to portion snacks and meals, maintaining consistency in her feeding routine.
Versatility for Every Stage
What makes these plates truly unique is their adaptability. They served as snack plates for kids during playdates and doubled as divided plates for adults when Rico’s parents needed portion control for their meals. This versatility ensured the family got the most out of their investment while keeping Rico’s feeding routine consistent.
A Breakthrough in Speech Development
After six months of incorporating the suction plates for toddlers into her daily routine, Rico’s progress was undeniable. Her therapist noted significant improvements in her ability to articulate sounds and form basic words. Mealtime was no longer a struggle but an opportunity for Rico to build critical skills. The plates with dipping sections encouraged her to experiment with a variety of textures, expanding her palate and improving her chewing abilities.
