Why Plate & Play?
We believe mealtimes can be a space for bonding and quality time for the whole family. Through our ready-made dishes, we hope to ease the everyday load, one meal at a time, and to score caregivers that much-needed quality time with their little ones. We hope our community gets to enjoy that extra breather to do the things that truly matter, all while knowing that their babies are being nourished with wholesome food for their growing bodies
We are the only pioneer in ready-made table foods for babies. Table foods are any food or meal that is not purposely pureed for babies’ consumption.
We curate our meals based on the latest research and studies around babies’ weaning/feeding journeys. It is known that babies learn and develop through play. Thus, our menu always includes a variety of flavours, textures and colours, to provide little ones with sensory experiences from which they can learn from and which may help encourage a healthy relationship with different types of food.
We also include allergens in our food as the most updated research has found that frequent and early exposure to allergens can actually prevent allergies from developing.
We also try to be as inclusive as possible, while offering explorative options. Every cycle, we endeavour to have options for those with dietary restrictions such as but not limited to vegetarian, dairy-free, and also feature one bundle that is free of a specific allergen.
We support all kinds of feeding journeys: baby-led weaning, traditional, and mixed. We are the first to curate special finger-foods and meals that are prepared to be texturally safe for young ones without them being pureed in the process. While we focus on offering table-foods, caregivers who adopt traditional feeding may choose to simply blend our meals to the consistency of their liking and still enjoy the goodness and flavours of our dishes.
