Kiddopotamus TinyDiner Placemat

This is one of our many favorite kid products. The Kiddopotamus placemat suction cups onto the table, and has a “catcher” that hangs over the edge. We first saw it at the home of a child I was taking care of when my son was two, and he loved it. It helped to define his space at the table during the transition into a booster seat without a buckle, and was useful to control the chaos created by his younger sister – a self-feeder from that day she started solids – by catching the spills (especially important when we took her out into the world where there was not a dog eager to clean up all that fell).
