Here's why silicone is the optimal choice for your little one's feeding essentials and toys during this important starting solids phase:
1. It's BPA-free and non-toxic, ensuring your child's safety.
2. It's safe to use in the microwave, dishwasher, oven, and freezer, making meal preparation and cleanup a breeze.
3. Silicone is naturally bacteria and stain-resistant, maintaining hygiene during this crucial stage.
4. It's impact-resistant and durable, withstanding the challenges of starting solids.
Taking proper care of your silicone items is vital. It's not uncommon for silicone to emerge from the dishwasher with white, chalky marks and sometimes a hint of a soapy flavor. Below, we'll guide you on how to rejuvenate your silicone products, keeping them in excellent condition as your child starts solids:
1. Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F).
2. Place your silicone items in the oven for approximately 20 minutes.
3. Carefully remove them and submerge them in warm, soapy water in your sink.
4. Once they've cooled enough to handle, gently use a non-scratch scourer to rub over the surface, removing any residue.
5. Rinse thoroughly with boiling water and hand dry.
By following these steps, you'll ensure that your silicone products continue to serve your child well as they embark on their exciting journey of starting solids.
