Promote Healthy Eating Habits
Our Proud Montessori Placemat includes a unique "skip sign" designed to gently encourage your child to place unwanted food in a designated spot rather than throwing it away.

REDUCES FOOD THROWING
Proud Montessori Placemats feature a unique 'skip sign,' where your little one can place food they want to 'skip.' No unwanted food on the plate, no throwing! Keep reintroducing the skipped food, and they’ll eventually give it a try.
HANG TO DRY

Customer Reviews
We use this to eat meals on our coffee table that we prefer to not get liquids on. It’s quite functional and easy to clean; before this we had cloth placemats that became annoying to have to keep throwing in the wash. These also stay in place and have a good grip for plates on top, so no worries about food sliding off the table. What works for messy kids works for messy eaters. They’re also a nice, cute neutral color.
These placemats are really cute, and feel great on the table. They don't slide around, the tableware on them does not slide around. Love the pattern, kid friendly, but not baby-looking.
Love the tab/hold on the corner to hang dry. Haven't thrown them into the dishwasher yet, but love that that is an option.
My grandson is just 9 months old right now, so mostly he just bangs his hands on these, but he is learning that this placemat is at his place at the table and where his bowl sits. Will definitely be using for clay and other tabletop activities.
Highly recommend these placemats and this brand - APLAINR. We have several items (utensils, pour pitcher) from them and they are all quality products.
These are super cute! We use them as mats on top of our toaster oven and microwave to keep them from getting scratched and to be able to set dishes on top. They are a really cute design and they don't slide around because they are rubbery silicone. I really like these, and would definitely buy them again to put under appliances since I don't have babies. As a regular placemat for an adult, I'm not sure the silicone material would be comfortable and it would be a little weird, but your dishes wouldn't slide around if that's your concern.
Easy to clean and my boys love them. I have been looking for items to help foster independence and manners at the dinner table and these are great! My 2 and 3 year old know where each item on the table goes, and napkins aren't being thrown on the floor. I also love that the drink circle is far up on the mat, as it has already prevented a few spills. The only con is my 3 year old son now wants me to find him a toddler "knife," but that might be a person problem (lol). On the hunt for those now! My husband also really likes the quality of these mats, and called them the best mats we have tried (and we have tried a lot!). Wish they came in more colors! I am hoping the white doesn't stain when we do red pasta.
I don’t have a toddler but I do have a very messy cat and this is the best thing since sliced bread. He can’t push his bowl around and throw his food about. It’s pretty and easy to wipe off.
I love the size of these placeats. There is so much potential for them. So far we love using it for playdough. It makes the clean up so fast and easy. I think the quality feels really nice. They are thick and stay in place really well. They feel really durable and wash easily. They definitely help protect the surface underneath and they roll back up for easy storing. I also love the color/patterns.
These are great. We have a toddler who has transitioned from the highchair to sitting at the table with us in a booster. These are awesome to keep our butcher block counter clean under her plate. Easy to clean and stays put nicely. Like all silicone products I have, they seem to collect a lot of hair the first few uses but it seems to lose its ‘static’ or attraction to hair overtime. Also I love the colors and design.
Keeps our table a little more clean! These stay in place pretty well, the design is adorable, and they clean easy! What more can we ask for?
The quality of this set feels really nice, even the packaging was really nice, might keep the tube for a diy craft and upcycle it (maybe a kaleidoscope?)
We try to stick with a lot of Montessori and Waldorf style toys and activities, so these are super great!
I have fought the good fight with children's placemats for years. They are flimsy, they don't stay in place, they are hard to clean, the list goes on and on. When I saw these silicone placemats, it was like a lightbulb moment. And these work PERFECTLY. They stay put, they are easy to wipe down, and my kids don't get distracted by them or try to play with them during the meal. My only note is that I ordered a color called "blue hour" and it is very gray - no hint of blue that I can discern. But that is not enough to even take away a star because I am so, so happy that I found this product. Would recommend for daily use for any children in your household!
