Award winning tableware for children as judged at the JDA25

Junior Magazine Food Awards 2025 Best Children’s Tableware / Eco Tableware Design | Junior Design Awards 2025

Winner:GOLD - Best Children's Tableware Design / Eco Tablewear Design

Who:Wee Blue Bell

What:Enamelware

Why:

A refreshing and delightful remedy to plastic tableware for kids. Our panel fell head over heels for these nostalgic designs perfectly balanced by a modern and tasteful colour palette. Our judges loved the quality-led design and agreed that grown-ups would enjoy these pieces just as much as kids. The brand’s signature Arty the cat on the bottom of every piece is the absolute cherry on the cake – SO adorable!

How incredibly beautiful. I think a set of this enamelware would be such a precious first birthday present which would only be more used with time. Bring on the timeless plastic alternatives! So cool you might see one hung on my wall as decor...

This enamelware caught my eye at the awards. One of my favourites. Super cool colourways - fun and practical but looks so pretty on the table too.

Winner:SILVER - Best Children's Tableware Design / Eco Tablewear Design

Who: Munchkin

What:Suction Bowls (3pk)

Why:

Our judges thought that these bowls were a fab addition to any baby-weaning arsenal. The brightly coloured, cleverly stackable bowls are designed to stay put, minimising the risk of dinner flying across the room! As practical as they are cute, they’re dishwasher and microwave safe and BPA free to boot. Our panel agreed these bowls would make baby weaning a whole lot easier.

BPA-free materials and dishwasher safety - every detail is built for real-life convenience.

Lisa Oxenham, Journalist Creative Director & Editorial Consultant @lisaoxenham

Brilliant suction bowls. Munchkin products are great! A weaning essential.

Charlotte Kewley, Stylist & founder of @thelittlestylist

These bowls are brilliant. If you have just one thing in your mealtime arsenal, let this be it!

Winner:BRONZE- Best Children's Tableware Design / Eco Tablewear Design

Who:Munchkin

What:White Hotâ„¢ Infant Safety Spoons (4pk)

Why:

 Venturing into the world of solid foods is an exciting milestone but can feel scary too. These safety spoons from Munchkin are here to make the process as smooth as possible with their patented White Hot™ technology, which turns white when it comes into contact with food that is too hot. Our panel thought that this technology was absolutely genius and would make the whole process feel safer and more fun with one less thing to worry about.

Such a brilliant idea and super affordable. Another weaning essential.

Charlotte Kewley, Stylist & founder of @thelittlestylist

From soft, gum-friendly tips to long ergonomic handles and dishwasher-safe materials, every aspect is thoughtfully designed for safe, stress-free first feedings.

Lisa Oxenham, Journalist Creative Director & Editorial Consultant @lisaoxenham

The perfect handy tool for preventing accidents when you have a hungry baby but potentially hot food!
