The market share of this tableware is gradually increasing.
After understanding the materials of so many children's tableware, how should we choose the most suitable children's tableware when we go to the market? Let's take a look at the selection skills of children's tableware.
1. Look at the color
Use as few tableware with bright colors as possible. The pigments may contain toxic and harmful substances such as heavy metals. When heating or containing acidic food, such substances are more likely to migrate and precipitate, and enter the body of the child at the same time as the food. Plain color or stainless steel children's tableware can be preferred.
2. Pay attention to drop resistance
In the process of purchasing children's tableware, it is best to choose children's tableware that is more resistant to falling. Because children do not have enough control over the tableware during the eating process, many children may often break the tableware during the eating process. So buy more durable children's tableware.
3. Avoid excessive decoration
It is best not to buy children's tableware with a brighter surface or paint. Because most tableware decorated with paint contains lead, long-term use is not good for baby's health, it is best to use natural ones. Tableware can not be used for too long, and must be replaced after a period of time to prevent accidental consumption of porcelain, and be careful not to buy those with patterns on the inner wall.
4. Pay attention to the edge of the cutlery
Poor-quality cutlery is very prone to burrs, and children's lips are very tender. Once the cutlery has burrs, it is likely to scratch their mouths. Therefore, in the process of choosing tableware, we should pay special attention to the edge of the tableware. You can touch the surrounding area of the tableware with your hand to feel whether it is smooth.
