Keeping food ON the plate!
Food guards are ideal for those who want to use conventional tableware, but have difficulty getting food onto utensils. They are practical for people who tend to push food off the plate because of lack of coordination. These sanitary food bumpers clip onto any circular dinner plate. They provide walls against which food may be pushed onto forks or spoons. Dishwasher safe and autoclavable. Colored food bumpers may be used for identification of individuals or dietary restrictions. Fit plate diameters from 8 1/2" to 11". Bumpers are designed for people who want to use their regular dishes but need help getting food onto the cutlery. Bumpers easily clip onto any round plate.

PLAY Tip
What Is It? Tactile Discrimination Game
Kinesthetic awareness is an important part of healthy sensory integration. Challenge your child to use the sense of touch only and identify different objects with the What Is It? Tactile Discrimination Game. Try dividing the objects by theme. Good examples are: objects from nature, dishes and cutlery, or grooming aids. To make the game easier, try offering fewer choices and supply a picture of the objects under the cover. Can your child tell the toothbrush from the hairbrush?
