This Christmas when we were driving down to DC to visit my family we stopped at Chick Fil A. My trusty Skip Hop plate was packed away in the trunk, but it didn’t matter! They gave us a great table topper that stuck to the table – it kept the germs away from Cameron, and made his mess fairly easy to clean up.

I checked out Amazon to see if I could find something like this to keep in my diaper bag, and indeed I was able to!

This one comes with a pop up travel case
These toppers (above) have a sesame street theme and come with a pop up travel case – great for diaper bags! There are other themes too, if your little one isn’t into Sesame Street.
Eating out with a baby is never easy, per say, but this Skip Hop Mate plate certainly does help! I first saw Celia using it with her daughter Claire and knew I had to get one. I take it with me every time Cameron and I are eating out now. It sticks to the table well, and since the edges slope down, its harder for him to toss around than a regular plate. We even use it sometimes at home in his high chair. I got mine from Diapers.com (which by the way is having a huge site wide sale now.) Amazon has it too, so it depends where you are shopping and what else you are buying. Anyways, it’s a real help and I highly recommend it!

Skip Hop Mate comes in 3 colors - Blue, Orange, and Rasberry
