According to Dr. Carol Rosen, Medical Director of Pediatric Sleep Services at University Hospitals Rainbow Babies & Children’s Hospital, snoring may cause more serious health problems in children.

Snoring could be a sign that a child’s airway is narrowed, which is most commonly caused by enlarged tonsils and adenoids. It also could indicate breathing problems during sleep, such as sleep apnea — a condition in which the airway repeatedly collapses or is blocked during sleep, causing irregular or shallow breathing.

The BABYBJÖRN Plate and Spoon makes it a cinch for children to eat by themselves. The spoon’s easy to grip short handle helps small hands scoop up food in the plate’s three-leaf clover shape. A rubber base also makes sure the plate stands steadily on the table. Both the BABYBJÖRN Plate and Spoon are BPA-free, dishwasher-safe and can be heated in the microwave to a maximum of 90°C/194°F.
