How were the games created?
Our games were created by two parents who wanted to create a positive, relaxed experience around food that encouraged independence and joy instead of pressure. Each game was designed to foster child development, behavior, and family dynamics.
Is it bad to play with your food?
Not at all! By centering our games around food, we help little eaters stay engaged with their meal from start to finish. This playful approach improves eating habits, boosts motivation, and even enhances cognitive skills. Designed by experts in psychology and education, our games strike a perfect balance between having fun and eating healthy! 🥦🥕
Is playte screen-free?
Yes! At playte, we believe in screen-free meals. Screens at meals divert attention away from - instead of focusing on - the food. This oftentimes leads to mindless eating, as little ones lose track of what and how much they're consuming. Additionally, screen time creates a siloed experience but playte creates a shared, joyful experience. 🧡
Can you microwave a playte?
No, you should not put a playte in a microwave or oven. Each playte is made of melamine, which is an organic compound that is especially suitable for children since it is extremely durable. However, it is not suitable for a microwave or oven.
