MyPlate Portion Control Plate – 4 Divided Sections for Fruit Grains Veggies Proteins - Dishwasher & Microwave Safe Sectioned Plates for Health Education (1-Pack)

These plates are great for portion control. Also, will help kids learn the value of good nutrition practices. I bought four for my family and one for me, the adult. They are bright and colorful and joyful. Kids will love them as I, the adult, does. Very pleased with these plates. Fast shipping by seller also.

Microwave safe, great for youngsters learning about food and health. The size is just right. My only complaint is the lack of “dairy” section which is fine.

Very helpful with teaching our children about portion control

I bought these for my two-year-old grandchild. They are bright, colorful and attractive. My daughter likes them because it reminds her to plan meals including all the food groups. The portion dividers seem a little large, though, for a two-year-old, although that is the lower age limit for which the plates were recommended for use. I would say that each section should be only half-filled for an appropriate two- or three-year old portion. I note that several reviews complain that the color is not durable; we've been using them for only a week or so now, and have not yet found any problems in that regard, although I will edit my review should that happen.

I ordered these plates for the family because a couple of the us need to work on portion control. The younger kids (ages 3 and 6) thought these plates were the bomb! They actually thanked me for buying them! They love how colorful they are and they love putting the different foods in the different sections. I like that the younger ones are learning the technical terms for food groups (proteins, grains, etc.). As for the older ones in the family, we didn't like learning what true portion sizes are! LOL!!!! But,I feel that these plates will definitely help us stick to our portion sizes and it will be a huge health benefit to us in the long run. This was a great purchase in our quest for a healthier lifestyle.

Paint wore off after washing a few times.

This plate has helped me immensely in feeding my picky preschooler. My son has Sensory Processing Disorder and mealtime can be tough because he doesn’t want to eat new foods (i.e. new foods = tantrums/whining). With this plate, I now feed him in stages - fruit and/or veggies have to be eaten first before he can get peanut butter or chicken (his preferred foods). My son likes routines, so all foods are distributed according to the picture at every meal, plus he knows how much he has to eat because the plate is divided. You can’t put a price on the amount of whining this has eliminated during our mealtimes. These plates hand wash very well and I like that they are BPA-free and melamine-free, too. Would recommend to any parent!

perfect size, easy use, great functionality, great value for the money, don't use in microwave, so unsure if it is a good idea to use in a microwave and suprisingly I am full when I use this
